It is informative to know where raid medals come from. It can aid in making decisions about what upgrades to the Clan Capital are prioritized.

The first place I read to get an overview was at Fandom (an excellent source of Clash of Clans info). This page, under “Rewards” gives a brief, but useful, overview.

But a post on Reddit gives details on how to calculate it, and it produces the same numbers I see in my raid logs. This gives me confidence that it is correct.

The bottom line is that all raid medals are awarded by destroying District and Capital Halls.

There are two key tables in that post. The medal count in those tables is awarded to the clan, and then divided up on a per-attack basis to the clan members.

The first shows the raid medals gained by destroying an enemy district.

District Hall Level	Raid Medals	Increase over previous
1	135	None
2	225	90
3	350	125
4	405	55
5	460	55

The second shows the raid gained by destroying the capital hall.

Capital Peak Level	Raid Medals	Increase over previous
2	180	None
3	360	180
4	585	225
5	810	225
6	1115	305
7	1240	125
8	1260	20
9	1375	115
10	1450	75
