Brunswick Agricultural Medal

[Guest Rick Research]

This is from a local collection. Appears to be almost pure silver:

It's about the size of a Hessian Bravery Medal, as if it was intended for wear on a medal bar. If there WAS a ribbon, hs anyone ever seen one?

Here it is (not mine). Looks bronze, maybe there were several classes?

Very interesting and certainly not something we run across on anything akin to a regular basis!

Interesting! Thanks for sharing that! BOTH have the same style of simple engraving, and both are for unspecified years of membership actrivity-- I wonder if there was also a gold medal???

Yeah, that's what I thought too! 25 - 40 - 50 yrs, maybe?? (any ideas how to survive 50 years in agricultural service? )
