It sure does look like the token I posted. The resemblance is striking!  (Sorry, I've had that one in the quiver for quite some time and needed to let it fly!  )

Here is a merit medal from the 1873 Vienna world exposition. I've had it for 15 or 20 years just sitting in a drawer. I've never researched it. If anyone has any information about this medal, I would love to know more about it.    |

@Phil310- & dar76124: Very nice medals! I was unfamiliar with them, so it was great to see them. Also, thanks for giving this thread more of an international perspective!
@muddler: Nice CPIE medal. Thanks for sharing it!

muddler, those 1933 Worlds Fair Colorado tokens do not come cheaply. Congrats on a fine example.
