Medals
Reference:5922 Marriage between Frederick IV of Denmark and Norway and Princess Louise of Mecklenburg-Gustrow, 1695
A procession of ships.
A winged cherub holds a flag signifying the happy union of marriage between the royal couple; ships and figures in distance.
By Christian Schneider.
Silver. 49 mm.
Condition: Extremely Fine
Notes:
Believed to have been struck from an imperfect die, the field has subdued imperfections, and the edge, nicks and surface inconsistencies. None the less, this is a most attractive specimen of an extremely rare medal, retaining almost its entire original brilliance.
