Just received this lot of mostly 19th century material. All lower mintage and fabulous designwork IMO.

3 Swiss (Vaud) shooting medals. I really like these designs which make one understand why these are so cool. Did my thing buying raw and will submit for my set.

I ran across this one incidentally and went for it. It is a German shooting medal with a fabulous design in my opinion. I collect Swiss Shooting Medals and this is a bit outside my focus, yet a definite keeper! I am excited.

These 2 came in from NGC. The first was sent in knowing it has been cleaned yet believe the slab will preserve it from picking up dust given the low mintage.
