Another awesome design! I'm surprised by the date though. To me it has the look of an older design, maybe early 1800's. Very nice!

It does have an older design to it, I like the design of the German shooting medals over the Swiss. Its hard for me now to chose which series to finish first. I seem to find more Swiss medals at shows than I do German ones. I guess I have to look harder for the German medals. But it makes the hunt a lot of fun.
