jeggy Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 That's a neat medal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 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. :-) Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Sisu Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Maybe it is just the lighting, but the text on the back shows signs of doubling? Great looking piece!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeggy Posted January 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Maybe it is just the lighting, but the text on the back shows signs of doubling? Great looking piece!! I didn't complain, the price was lower than 40 Euro (Ebay, Spring 2004) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
