Modern medal struck in plated copper with antique finish, corresponding to design LM-863 inspired by republican motifs. The obverse presents a solemn portrait of Yuan Shikai, in a realistic and sober style, with careful facial modeling, well-defined reliefs and uniformly textured satin fields. The reverse shows a symbolic composition of political and military character, with crossed flags treated with precision and balance, highlighting the contrast between reliefs and the matte background. The piece offers a homogeneous gray patina, complete reliefs and flawless surfaces, typical of a maximum-quality proof strike, certified to the highest grade of preservation.
Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside the EU that has a special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
