<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Chris B, post: 8320780, member: 87179&quot;]Here is a purchase from this week&#039;s Central States Show. Seller&#039;s picture and description.</p><p><br /></p><p>I had seen this on their website and asked if they could bring it to the show. The rim damage isn&#039;t as glaring in hand. I was smitten at first sight. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1473848[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Shlesien Medal. Likely from Christoph Sucro</p><p><br /></p><p>ca. 1680</p><p><br /></p><p>AR Medal, 15.57g (32mm). This very rare medal served as a moral reminder to (married) women. The inscription on both sides reads: WORKING HARD IN THE HOME RESULTS IN KEEPING A TRANQUIL AND PEACEFUL HOME. The illustrations on the front and back illustrate this advice. On the reverse are three beehives with swarming bees (symbol of diligence), The obverse shows a snail with house between two trees (symbol of peaceful domesticity).</p><p><br /></p><p><i>References: F. u.
