Medal for the Defense of Kiev

 

 Mint Error with the wrong reverse struck with a die used for the Medal for the Capture of Vienna

 

 

Made out of gold plated brass. Measures 32.10 mm in width and 37.05 mm in height including its eyelet and it weighs 16.3 grams without its suspension.

 

The medal for the Defense of Kiev is in good condition with its details crisp and light wear only. A fair amount of gold plating is still present although most has been worn off.  Its aluminium suspension is time period to the medal.

 

According to several sources a limited number of medals was struck with a wrong die for its reverse; the one which is used to produce medals for the Capture of Vienna. These medals are hard to find and are very collectible and sought after.
