大清钦差大臣赏给功牌。
CHINA. Silver Medal of Merit for the Qing Dynasty, ND (1896). PCGS Genuine--Mount Removed, Unc Details Gold Shield.
大清钦差大臣赏给功牌。李鸿章出访纪念。双龙相向,四周花边环绕。英国伯明翰喜敦铸币厂亦生产过此款功牌。合理推测是,功牌上有首字母缩写的是为俄国制造,无首字母缩写的是为英国制造。
CHINA. Silver Medal of Merit for the Qing Dynasty, ND (1896). PCGS Genuine--Mount Removed, Unc Details Gold Shield.42mm. LM-989. Imperial envoy. Also known as the "Legation" medal. Commemorating Li Hung Changs world tour. Two facing dragons, a sun design between with six characters above and four below, the whole encircled by an ornamental border. It is known that the Heaton Mint in Birmingham, England also produced these medals. It seems reasonable that the pieces with the initials are of Russian manufacture, and those without are from the Birmingham mint. Quit pleasingly toned, though with some minor cleaning and the noted edge marks from typical mount removal.
