Yep, those medals - there are several, with different dates, figures and designs - illustrate the "galloping" inflation in those days. In German the term Hungermedaille is pretty common among collectors when it comes to them, mostly because of the depicted mother and child scene.

Thanks!

 

That coin was never produced. We got the politically correct SBA instead.

 

They why I posted it in this category.

 

The obverse was to be a copy of an ANA medal.

 

Neat! Where did you get it? Is it made of silver? What size is it? I think I want one of those.

 

I really like these old French Agriculture medals.I couldn't find an engravers sig on this one. I would have thought it would be signed. Looks like a lot of work went into the dies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreux

 

That's a neat one! Any edge markings?

 

Thanks Stork, yes it does , but not much to go on. It's a really thin medal, I have not seen one made this thin.

 

Merry Christmas and any other holidays you observe!

 

Uniface silver medal struck when York Minster cathedral burned in 1829. Adapted from the obverse die of a Conder token (Yorkshire 63, 1795).

 

Trier 1918

 

I believe this charm translates to longevity, wealth and honor.

 

Looks like a bear to me, maybe?
