The Lithuanian Independence Medal was established in 1928 as a state decoration issued for the 10th anniversary of Lithuanian independence. It was awarded for contributions to the re-establishment and strengthening of the independent Lithuanian state and was designed by sculptor Juozas Zikaras.
The 1928 issue was granted to categories closely connected with the struggle for independence, including book smugglers during the press ban, participants in the Wars of Independence, members of the Klaipėda Revolt, riflemen, early public servants, and Knights of the Cross of Vytis. More than 44,000 Lithuanian citizens and foreign nationals received the medal between 1928 and 1940.
Its obverse depicts the Freedom Monument in Kaunas, while the reverse bears the inscription Per amžius budėję - laisvę laimėjom per aukas ir pasišventimą 1918-1928 (“Through the ages on guard, we have won freedom through sacrifices and dedication, 1918-1928”).
