drdn Valued Member United States 107 Posts	Posted 09/08/2025 2:13 pm 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? Report this Post to the Staff

retiredkper Pillar of the Community United States 541 Posts	Posted 10/05/2025 8:45 pm 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! Report this Post to the Staff
