laverdajohn Valued Member United Kingdom 175 Posts	Posted 05/28/2015 5:26 pm Still researching this, I would appreciate comments on the following. Could this be Selim II with the devil and on the other side John of Austria with Marcantonio Colonna and Sebastiano Venier? the Battle of Lepanto in 1571 would put it in the same time frame as the Anti-Catholic Medals Report this Post to the Staff

philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 05/31/2015 09:45 am I had noticed the similarities to that one, Petrus. The curved horn of the devil, only with the devil's ear blurred into something like another horn. And the papal triregnum (three-tiered crown) turned into a turban. Report this Post to the Staff
laverdajohn Valued Member United Kingdom 175 Posts	Posted 05/31/2015 11:31 am I have two of those at the moment ] but this small (22mm) silver one seems to be anti Islam if anything, from what I have read, Islam was accepting of the new protestant religion. Report this Post to the Staff
