<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kasia, post: 1270961, member: 31533&quot;]I think this is a contest medal. I think (quick googling) that <i>Revue exotique illustrée</i>&nbsp; was a publishing house or publisher in Paris. The words mensuels concours translate to monthly contest. </p><p><br /></p><p><i>Aperire terram Gentibus is </i>Open Earth Nations (I think meaning open borders of countries/free transit), and I think canibus sub tegmine palmae translates&nbsp; A/The Dog brings up Glory ( or Victory) (not sure what that means).</p><p><br /></p><p>So, I think this probably dates from the late 1800&#039;s, is a contest medallion of some sort (prize) and was issued by the Revue Exotique Illustree.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>fiat lux tranlates to &quot;let there be light&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
