Recently picked up the below Prussian medal:

Translation per Google:
"In commemoration of the Sheep Show in Liegnitz 1865"

"From the agricultural Central Association for Silesia"

From my research, Liegnitz was a region in the Province of Silesia which was a Prussian province from early 19th to early 20th century.

The fields are quite nice with a proof quality that I've tried to capture in one of the photos. I cannot find any references for this medal. An odd bit of exonumia that perhaps someone can help me with?

Your medal commemorates a sheep breeders convention held in Liegnitz in 1865. Sponsored by the Central land management associations of Silesia. Great condition for a copper medal!
