    Look at the size of this thing! Any ideas or translations would be so appreciated.

    But the pictures aren't large to match.

    can you please write what it says on the coin? Pics are a bit too small. May be time to register with photobucket.

    What they said - the images are too small. When I click on a thumbnail, the "enlarged" image has about the same size ...

    But yes, the medal has something to with Franz Schubert. On the other side I can read or guess "Für Verdienste um das deutsche (something) - Brünner Schubertbund". That is, "For merits or service to the German (something)". Schubertbund is a name that several choirs etc. have; here www.schubertbund.at is the website of the one in Vienna. Brünn used to be part of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire, and is in the Czech Republic (Brno) today.

    The size is not that unusual for a medal. In fact it is not hard to find medals much larger than this.

    I think everything is alright with size of the medal but the pics are too small to see what the OP was talking about. ;)

    This one is 81mm. I love the way the artist designed it to give it depth.
