<p>[QUOTE=&quot;calcol, post: 8606201, member: 77639&quot;]Chaplain used the same image of Marianne on the medals he designed for the Paris Expo of 1900.&nbsp; See the pics below. There was a huge variety of these.&nbsp; The main difference was the name inscription on the reverse.&nbsp; The names could refer to famous people, expo sponsors and expo booth holders.&nbsp; For the medal in the pics, I’m not sure if E. Jolibois&nbsp; was the French politician and philosopher who died in 1896 or the prominent publisher who was active during 1900.</p><p><br /></p><p>In addition to the bronze medal shown here, there were also silver- and gold-plated versions.&nbsp; The medals are 63-64 mm (2.5 inches) in diameter</p><p><br /></p><p>Cal</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1514315[/ATTACH]</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1514314[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
