CHINA. Germany. Silver Assault on Taku Forts Medal, 1900. Oertel Mint in Berlin. NGC PROOF-66 Ultra Cameo.Marienburg-7172; Li-pg. 101. Obverse: Map of the Haihe River (China) and its fortifications; Reverse: SMS <em>Iltis</em> sailing right upon the sea. Commemorating the assault of the Eight Nations Alliance up the Haihe River, where they encountered large casualties but were eventually successful in gaining the Taku Forts. The ship on this piece was a German vessel which took sixteen shells during the assault, the highest of any foreign ship in the battle. A rather <strong>SCARCE</strong> and interesting German medal dealing with the Boxer Rebellion in China. This beautifully preserved survivor offers fantastic eye appeal dripping with originality displaying lovely mottled sunset and dusky hued patina that immediately commands attention from those who behold it worthy of a fine cabinet of the connoisseur.
