Anyone know what does old military medal might be?

A friend picked it up and a pawn shop.

It's not a military medal that I've ever encountered.

Could be an obscure foreign military medal, but it's most likely a non-military award produced for some organization.

Are there no markings on it at all?

No markings at all.

This is the pic the OP posted

Thank you.

Iron Cross(ish), Soviet star. I'd guess something Eastern European, but I couldn't find it.

It’s very Eastern European looking, definitely not American.

The Maltese cross is a motif used on countless military decorations, and some civilian decorations as well.

Do not recognize as a American Military Issue. I am guessing some European Country issue. ................. drill sgt.

That looks like it might have been some sort of "medal" given as an award or prize. There is a blank space on the top bar with room for an inscription.

It is vaguely suggestive of a U.S. Army marksmanship medal, but that is not what it is. It does not look like any current U.S. military medal or decoration.

I did a Google reverse image search and also Googled "Maltese cross and star." There are many pins and emblems with the Maltese Cross design but the searches came up with nothing that looks like the one in the original post.

It looks civilian to me, and domestic, something that came out of a trophy shop.

Stage prop?

Thank you guys, I appreciate the effort you put into this.

Doesn't look like somewhat similar french or russian medals. I think also a civilian organization, fraternity or similar.
