Here's a new purchase from the Denver World's Fair of Money: a 1906 wedding anniversary medal of Kaiser Wilhelm II and Kaiserin Auguste Victoria.

    Nice medal image. I have one with the same obverse, but the reverse (I didn't have time to take a pic) says "1881-1906" for the 25th anniversary. Yours says 1888-1906 ? 18th Anniversary ? image Probably a typo in your post's title image

    image medal, anyway. - Preussen

    Thanks Preussen ... yes, I goofed with the 1888! I was thinking automatically of Wilhelm's ascension year, which was commemorated even more extensively than his wedding anniversary.
