I'm not much of a medal collector but I've had this one for quite some time:
OBVERSE

I am just curious as to what it's for:
REVERSE

Medal for the 1866 war between Prussia and Austria / Bavaria . There are 3 of the same type with different lettering : Koenig graetz , Unseren treuen Kriegern und Mainarmee . All issued by Prussia and by my Great-Grandfather called the EK of 1866 , the Iron Cross of 1866 . He got the Koenig graetz one , since he took part in that battle in a Prussian Garde Pioneer unit . Hope this helps , Bernd

Jim, Lakesidetrader has the Koenig Graetz version on his site.

Russell

Thanks for the help guys. I'll take a look at Pauls.

Let's move this interesting thread over to the Imperial forum, Wednesday, June 6th.
That should give ample advance warning.
