[QUOTE="GeorgeM, post: 26088446, member: 28550"]Since there's not an Exonumia forum, I wasn't quite sure where to put this. But, I've occasionally found beautiful brass plaques in collections I've acquired, often featuring the artwork of engravers known to many coin collectors. Do you collect such plaques? Feel free to share images & their stories. I'm also curious about the best way to store these. I've often had to resort to wrapping them in protective cloth if the presentation boxes are missing, which is not ideal for display. Here's an example: a plaque celebrating the 1919 Strasbourg International Expo. This event marked the return of regions seized by Germany in the Franco-Prussian war, back to French control 2 generations later after the First World War. I can't find out much about the expo, which presumably was hosted in Strasbourg. [ATTACH=full]1662581[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1662582[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
