Hi. I'm evaluating an estate and this is one of the items I came across. Can someone here tell me something about it or point me to a site that has information?

I would appreciate your help on this.

Probably from the mid-1960s. Aschaffenburg was annexed by Bavaria in 1814/15; the construction of Johannisburg Castle began in 1605 and was completed in 1619. The medal looks golden but may be gold-plated ...

Thanks, that all makes sense. If the castle was completed in 1619, the 350th anniversary would have been in 1969. The owner was stationed in Aschaffenburg from 1971-1973. The piece is gold, tested 20 karat, and weighs 10.0 grams.

Thank you again for your help.

Neil
