Meck-Schwer Commem. Medal -1897

[Ulsterman]

My latest acquisition- I had to have it. It is perfect.

Issued in 1897 as a commemorative medal; I think only about 3,000 were issued.

I agree that they are a most attractive medal. I have only handled a small number in many years but because they are of commemorative nature they are unexpensive in relation to their scarcity.

A very attractive medal. Several years ago I had a piece in my collection, not in silver, but in bronce for the servants. The coronationsyear of this medal was not 1883, but 1888. I asked Dr. Klietmann about this wrong year, but he had no idea.
