St. Gallen 1874. No face value, but this coin was good for 5 Franken during the shooting festival.
It consists of the same material and has the same diameter and weight as the contemporary Federal 5 Franken issue.

That's a neat medal.

A nice medal with a mintage of only 15,000 which (as you rightly note) actually carried the value of 5 francs. That one is on my hit list. :-)

Maybe it is just the lighting, but the text on the back shows signs of doubling?

Great looking piece!!

Well spotted!

I didn't complain, the price was lower than 40 Euro (Ebay, Spring 2004)

Great piece, and a nice picture, thanks! By the way, we have a few other Schützentaler discussions and images here ...
