| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | The image will serve as the primary means of identification of the medal in the infobox of the page discussing the award, as well as a type of archive, since this specific image of the gold medal does not exist anywhere else outside the secondary source from which this copy was obtained |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
The item is an official military medal and no free equivalent is available or can be created |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | One use only: the article discussing the award |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
This medal was created by the East India Company as part of their military awards system. There is no commercial benefit from the use of the image. The image itself was created by an auction website, which sells the original medal, not the image; as such, use of the image alone does not infringe upon their commercial rights and opportunities |
