Daffy Duck Posted November 3, 2017 Posted November 3, 2017 I really like France, as you can came across so nice findings related to Serbia. This is my latest acquisition, Royal Household medal, third class, from the period 1903-1914 (better known as third model), produced by G.A Scheid from Vienna. As you can see, it's almost in mint condition... What is interesting, there are on the ring few markings. Hallmark of the producer (GAS), two marks of the Assay Office (letter ,,A" in the square), and the third which is one large ------ (almost like numer 1 in horizontal position) without any meaning to me. Anyone who can explain me the meaning of that third mark? I would try to post picture with details.
paja Posted November 3, 2017 Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) A very nice find indeed, congrats on your newest acquisition Maybe the third hallmark is badly imprinted silver fineness hallmark for small pieces - dog head and number 3 (.800) Illustration found here. Edited November 3, 2017 by paja

Veljko Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 (edited) And if i can contribute to the topic, this is an example of same medal manufactured by Arthus Berthrand. They were made from bronze and guilded, and the crown and letters are slightly different And here we can compare and see difference between GA Scheid and Arthus Bertrand, golden ones with crown and without are manufactured by Arthus Bertrand and both silver medals are manufactured by GA Scheid Edited December 28, 2017 by Veljko
Veljko Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 And also related to this topic, here is awarding document for the royal household golden medal with crown Close look on the seal of the Marechalate of the court
Toplica Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 This might be a stupid question, but I just wanna try it anyway:)) I know there are boxes for this medal manufactured by G.A.S., but are there any boxes for this type of medal manufactured by Bertrand?
