Ian Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 60mm bronze medal of Jean Le Rond D'Alembert (1717-1783) by by N. Gatteaux, signed and dated 1786. God alone knows where the `smudge' on the rhs field has come from. it's certainly not on the medal itself. The reverse is the same design as used on jetons of the L' Academie Francaise which D'Alembert was Secretary. Here's what wiki has to say about him : D'Alembert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 Very nice medal. I wonder if the smudge is just a reflection of some kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
