ANNEX Description of the goods Classification (CN-code) Reasons (1) (2) (3) An article in the form of a medal made of base metal, not plated with precious metal, in various shapes (circular, rectangular, irregular etc.) and sizes (usually of a diameter between 35 mm and 70 mm). The article can be decorated with various motifs (imprints) and it is coloured in gold, silver or bronze. It can have an eyelet at the top to be hung on a ribbon and worn around the neck. The article is presented to be used as a medal, to decorate a person after success in a competition, with or without a ribbon. See images  ( *1 ) 7117 19 00 Classification is determined by general rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, Note 11 to Chapter 71 and by the wording of CN codes 7117, 7117 19 and 7117 19 00 . The article is designed to be worn on the body or on clothes. It is considered a small object of personal adornment (see also Harmonized System Explanatory Notes (HSEN) to heading 7117, first paragraph). Classification under heading 8306 as ‘ornaments of base metal’ is excluded as the article is not of a kind designed essentially for decoration, in homes, offices, etc. (see also the HSEN to heading 8306, part (B), first paragraph). That heading covers only medallions other than those for personal adornment (see also the HSEN to heading 8306, part (B), third paragraph, (1)). Consequently, the article is to be classified under CN code 7117 19 00 as ‘other imitation jewellery of base metal’. ( *1 )   The images are purely for information.
