jshorter Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Hi Everyone, Just picked this one up. It hasn't arrived yet, and it looks like it will take a little bit of care to clean off the glue residue on the reverse. I have found it to be a beautiful award, and I was wondering if anyone can tell me more about it (possible maker, year manufactured, etc.)? Thanks! Jason
jshorter Posted July 2, 2014 Author Posted July 2, 2014 Would also love to see examples that you all might have in your collections...
jshorter Posted July 5, 2014 Author Posted July 5, 2014 Mine just arrived! I was able to gently remove the adhesive from the back and after looking at it under the scope, I was able to find 3 maker marks. The first one is on the suspension ring and is an "A", which should be for Vienna. The second marks are actually on the eyelet, and are a "2" and an "A" within a trapezoid shaped box with a figure of something in the middle. The third set of marks are "V. M (indecipherable)", so I assume this medal was manufactured by V. MAYER’S SÖHNE in Vienna. Jason
