- GERMANY. Hamburg. 100th Anniversary of the Opening of the Second Version of St. Michael's Church Bronze Medal, 1862. PCGS SPECIMEN-64 Gold Shield. Gaedechens-2111; Wurzbach-8484. By H. Lorenz. Obverse: Uniformed bust left of Ernst Georg Sonnin left, wearing tricorne hat; Reverse: Facade of St. Michael's Church. Exceedingly brilliant and shimmering, this glossy near-Gem features deep brown color and a great deal of eye appeal. The original St. Michael's was completed in 1669, though it was destroyed in 1750 by a lightning strike. In 1762, the second version was initially completed under the purvey of Sonnin and Johann Leonhard Prey, though this too was to suffer an unfortunate fate-first catching fire in 1906 and then being badly damaged during the allied bombings of 1944-5. Estimate: $100 - $200. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
