I found that medals from the 19th and early 20th century were the most intriguing, and many were designed by the foremost artists in Western Europe.</p><p><br /></p><p>I was fortunate to establish a good (buying) relationship with three sellers in and around Paris, and often they would contact me whenever a really nice medal came into their possession.</p><p><br /></p><p>You can start by searching &quot;French medals&quot; or &quot;Belgian medals&quot; or &quot;Swiss medals&quot; or &quot;Italian medals&quot; and sort through these to find any that tickle your fancy. NOTE: If you just searched &quot;medals&quot;, you will likely have a few hundred thousand which would also include military medals, religious medals, auto club medals, etc. from all over the planet.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
