Latvia (Neibāde / Saulkrasti) Silver Hexagonal Jeton (Medal) 1897 - 75th Anniversary of Neubad Seaside Resort
5.49g. 25mm. The obverse shows a coat of arms with a knight’s helmet, mantling, and a shield. The inscription on reverse: 1822 / LXXV / 1897 / NEUBAD. This privately issued commemorative medal probably marks the 75th anniversary of the founding of Neubad (now Neibāde), a Baltic seaside resort established in 1822. Neubad became a popular destination for the German-speaking population of Livonia and Courland and was later incorporated into the modern Latvian town of Saulkrasti. The heraldic emblem likely represents a local noble or municipal symbol used during the resort’s early history.
