Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 05/18/2018 1:01 pm Got this as bycatch from a lot of coins from CNG (Classical Numismatic Group) they auctioned off all three medals from this event in 2016, but only the bronze and silver medals sold. Their description: BELGIUM. temp. Boudewijn I. 1951-1993. Gilt Brass Medal (50mm, 54.87 g, 12h). 1953 Agricultural Show - Prize Medal. By J. Witterwulghe. Dated 1953. Two pigs standing left, with heads raised and lowered / CONCOURS NATIONAL/ -/ 1953-/ NATIONALE PR#304;JSKAMP; all within wreath with star at top. Good VF, with original attached loupe for suspension. https://www.numisbids.com/n.php?p=l...1607&lot=614 Current website: http://krant.landbouwleven.be It's sort of neat, but not even remotely close to my collection interests. Just figured I would share Edited by Finn235 05/18/2018 1:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff

alganbagerap Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2490 Posts	Posted 05/18/2018 3:04 pm You've done well. I sell a lot of agricultural medals, mainly Belgian and French. The French usually have more detailed designs but the Belgian are more striking. And the ones that sell best are the pigs. Yours is in excellent condition and would fetch minimum EUR 25.00, probably a lot more. Report this Post to the Staff
