44 mm. Diakov-986.1. Plate medal from the Diakov catalog, and highly desirable as such. Struck in silver with light gray blue coloration and glossy semi reflective fields. The reverse remains uningraved. A few light marks in the open fields of the reverse, with the obverse canine portrait remarkably clean and quite impressive. We could not locate any record of previous transactions, at a minimum a very scarce medal, and presumably quite rare. NGC MS-62.
