Obviously this is something that isn't even close to my collecting strategy but I had to have it because I thought it was beautiful.

1927 Hamburg Altona Blumenschau Commemorative Medal, 35mm., Silver, Stempelglanz.

Obverse: Horticulture Association for Hamburg Altona and their surroundings.

Reverse: Flower ‘blumenschau’. Engraved “Blumenschau Altona, April 1927”

Wowee! "Stuningly beautiful medals" isn't the worst collection strategy!

That falls under 'drop-dead gorgeous'. Surely you have a drawer in your cabinet for that category right?

WOW...

Another terrific photo...

I have not seen that one before. What a great design...

Cacheman... I just don't understand how your pictures and images seem to get better and better. Well done... again.

Scott - You have the artist's eye - very beautiful - its all about the design and execution and this is a great example of both.
Thanks for sharing.
