Hello everyone!
I own a set of three beautiful silver medals from 1992, issued to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the discovery of America.
Unfortunately, I've been unable to find much information about these medals. Therefore, I hope someone here can help me.
I am aware of the following information:
Upon closer inspection, I discovered two tiny hallmarks on the medals next to the fineness mark "999.9". One of them looks to me like a face from the front, the other possibly like a head in profile with a crown.
My questions:
I would be very grateful for any information!
Thank you in advance and best regards from Slovenia!










I own a set of three beautiful silver medals from 1992, issued to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the discovery of America.
Unfortunately, I've been unable to find much information about these medals. Therefore, I hope someone here can help me.
I am aware of the following information:
- Year of birth: 1992
- Topic: 500 Years Since the Discovery of America / Christopher Columbus
- Number: 3 different medals
- Weight: exactly 50 g each (weighed by myself)
- Fineness: presumably 999.9 silver (corresponding hallmark present)
- Edition: allegedly only 750 copies (according to the original eBay description)
- Version: presumably polished plate (PP)
- Packaging: wooden box with red velvet lining
Upon closer inspection, I discovered two tiny hallmarks on the medals next to the fineness mark "999.9". One of them looks to me like a face from the front, the other possibly like a head in profile with a crown.
My questions:
- Does anyone recognize these medals or perhaps even own the same set?
- Can anyone identify these two hallmarks and assign them to a manufacturer or mint?
- Is the stated print run of 750 copies correct?
- Is there any information about the original publisher or a photo of the original certificate?
I would be very grateful for any information!
Thank you in advance and best regards from Slovenia!
