Description
The Joint Service Commendation Medal (JSCM) was authorized on June 25, 1963, and is awarded in the name of the Secretary of Defense to members of the Armed Forces of the United States who, after January 1, 1963, distinguished themselves by meritorious achievement or service in a joint duty capacity.
This award is intended for senior service on a joint military staff and is senior in precedence to service-specific Commendation Medals. As such, it is worn above the service Commendation Medals on a military uniform.

The obverse features the colors of the Joint Service Commendation Medal ribbon and depicts the medal’s Bald Eagle with 13 stars above it. The reverse has space available for engraving.
This coin is dedicated to the US military men and women fight for freedom and honors their commitment to their sworn duty in perilous and inhospitable conditions.
This item measures 1 3/4 inch (44mm) in diameter.
