<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gimbler-dave, post: 228882, member: 313&quot;]This came in recently from a local source that has supplied other period Italy medals so I am inclined to think it is authentic. There are still some outstanding details that I want to understand, and wonder if anyone can help.</p><p><br /></p><p>First, there is a mark GD on one of the outer surfaces of the inner circle. There is a good close up in the last picture. There are some number of variants, even in the &quot;knight&quot; category, and I am not sure which one this is. I think the colored dot pattern in the crown is what makes the determination. Does anyone know what this one is? Any thoughts on the unusual toning on the back surface behind the eagle? I know many of these were made from 18K gold, but not sure of the composition of this one. It is not attracted to a magnet.</p><p><br /></p><p>Weight with ribbon: 10.9 grams</p><p><br /></p><p>Dimensions: 37.7mm across x 37.7mm high. 96.7mm height from top of ribbon to bottom of medal.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks in advance! ...
