Prussia. Wilhelm I gold Specimen "Golden Wedding" Medal of 10 Ducats 1879 SP62 PCGS, Marienburg-Unl. 42mm. 34.41gm. By E. Weigand. Struck as a gift from the Victoria Masonic Lodge to brother J. Grabowski and his wife, P. Moores, in memory of the golden wedding of Emperor Wilhelm I and Augusta. A glassy gift fit with razor-sharp high relief motifs, sitting on the cusp of choice preservation and bound to its designation by only a light scattering of minor wisps. Seemingly quite elusive, and apparently missing from the Marienburg collection. Ex. Heritage Auction 3085 (August 2020, Lot 30140); Künker Auction 120 (February 2007, Lot 2044)
