<p>[QUOTE="Kasia, post: 1414303, member: 31533"]Yes, if you go to google books, there are at least two that will have info on this and possibly the other coins. The earliest one, that mentions LOOS being the maker is from 1822, and in German. The main Title is Münzen und Medaillen aller Könige in alphabetischer Ordnung dann der der Markgrafen Herzöge und Erzherzogin von Österreich by Joseph Appel </p><p>but the part of this volumen that addresses the French medallions is Repertoriums zur Münzkunde des Mittelalters und der neuern Zeit. The part in German that goes with your medal you show is on page 620, and does link it with Loos.</p><p><br /></p><p>The next earliest book I could find that has this medal in it is a French one. It is from 1826 titled HISTOIRE NUMISMATIQUE DE LA RÉVOLUTION FRANÇAISE by Michel Hennin. pp. 371-372. In it, in the paragraph below the description of the medallion is a paragraph that translates to "This medal was published in Berlin after the death of the Duke of Orleans by Daniel Friedrich Loos Loos and his son C is the third of the series of six victims published by these writers and on which we have already seen the pertinent details of 21 January 1793 Article 469 N of the coin the two that form part of the legend indicate the following" (pardon the translation, it is one of those automatic things that google books has). </p><p><br /></p><p>I think you would be well off to look at these two books, and if you have anyone who can help you with translating this better than google does it, that would be good. I think the good points is that both books seem to be laid out in a good order, so it should be fairly simple to make your way through (especially near the pages given) to find correlating medallions.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
