Attractive - and not that often encountered! - white-toned- and/or: 'Meissen'-porcelain-based, so-called: 'Erinnerungs-Medaille' bearing a miners-lamp and crossed hammers coupled with the text: 'Deutsch ist, war und bleibt die Saar'

This is an attractive - and with certainty not that often ie. scarcely encountered! - white-toned- and/or: 'Meissen'-porcelain-based so-called: commemorative-plaque (ie. 'tragbare Erinnerungs-Medaille') showing a detailed illustration of a miners-lamp and crossed hammers coupled with the text: 'Deutsch ist, war und bleibt die Saar' and that comes in an overall very nice- (and I deem most certainly issued- ie. moderately worn-), condition. The neat - medium-sized piece having an approximate diameter of approximately 3,7 cms. - has very pronounced detail and was never cleaned nor polished: it has maintained a typical age-patina and is very detailed and/or pronounced (but also shows some regular tarnish as can be seen on the pictures). The piece also shows some text on its back but this is obscured by its period-attached mounting (as can be noticed on the pictures). These neat - and I deem semi-official - presentation-pieces (which are sometimes referred to as: 'Böttger-Medaillen' after its designer) were used as some sort of patriotic, commemorative-awards. The piece comes mounted into a (period!) copper-based 'mounting'. Simply a very attractive - and with certainty unusually encountered! - 'Meissen-Porzellan'-based medal ie. 'Erinnerungs-Medaille'!
