Vatican Medals

Many are nondescript, but some are fabulous! Here's a nice example I came across: Italy, Rome, Pius XI Holy Year & Expo AR 1925. (Nope, I'm not planning on going for it myself. Mighty tempted ... but the credit card bills say, "No."image)

    Laurent, I know his grandson, Stéphane de Jaeger. He sells medals on eBay as artmedals and is a friend of mine. He's probably the best person to obtain Albert de Jaeger's medals from. Contact him and mention I recommended you to him.
