"Lettres-patentes" (1810) pour un baron autrichien : EJG de Beaumont de Saint-Quentin, chevalier de l'Ordre de Marie-Thérèse (1792). Campagnes 1792 - 1799 (Stockach); 1805, 1809. Colonel commandant la Landwehr à Vienne où il mourut en 1813.

Some old models. Notice the legend on both sides. Half size: Grand Cross, silver (originaly silver-gilt?)

Other "lettres-patentes": - given in Paris on March 9 1810, granting the title of knight to "Benoit Pistre, squadron leader in the 18th regiment of dragoons, member of the LoH". - given in Bayonne on April 24 1808, granting the title of count of the Empire to "Pierre-François Réal, commander in the LoH, state counseler".

Very very nice with the seal! Joseph Charles Lérivint (Saumur dec. 12 1776 - near Moskau sept. 25 1812). Squadron chief in the dragoons of the Imperial Guard, he fights in Spain and is killed in Russland during a reconnaissance in a fight against cossacks near the Prince Galitzin's castle.

Lovely mini indeed!

Hello! There are several variants of uniface medals. They were less expensive than the two-sided models. They could be acquired to be worn or displayed in a frame. They were made by most French manufacturers.

Hi David, On september 28, 1813, Chernishev attacked Kassel. Despite a strong defense led by the old general von Schlieffe, the French had to withdraw by the road of Frankfurt. They will however retake the city on october 1813. S I Think the one who will be governor of the city in september 1813 must be Chernishev.

Splendid! Congrats...
