Windycity Valued Member United States 366 Posts	Posted 12/31/2013 4:33 pm I am trying to identify and number of tokens/medals that I have found varying degrees of information online but still struggling. This post will focus on some German medals and I will post a couple threads with others. Any help appreciated. The first is a Proof or proof-like which I have not been able to find anything about. The second is an 1844 medal with a train on the reverse. The third is another I could very nothing about. Report this Post to the Staff

philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 12/31/2013 7:24 pm Um, I'm going the go with the "uprising" definition of Erhebung, rather than "survey." Might refer to the revolution of 1848, but given the time period of these other medals, it probably means the uprising in the Napoleonic era. Report this Post to the Staff
