DLV - commemorative medallion.
Picked this medallion up at the weekend and would like to share it with you.
It is 60mm in diameter and metal is 4mm thick, it weighs in at just under 100 grammes. No metal content marks anywhere. I washed it wth soap and water to remove accumulated grime, but did not harm the original chemical shading. It appears to celebrate the 25 year jubilee of a glider club (1911-1936) based at Stuttgart, Germany. I would appreciate any local knowledge as to the iconography, e.g., the temple like building displaying a Christian cross depicted on the obverse, and the prancing stallion depicted on the reverse.
