The gold-plated silver medal, 16.20 x 16.38 mm., depicts a blue enameled Maltese Cross featuring the Prussian royal cypher and the gilt text ‘Pour Le Merite’ (‘For Merit’), with gold-plated eagles set between the arms of the cross. No maker marks. Hung from gold suspension loop. Displays some light oxidation, scratching to the gilt cross, and enamel flaking. Still a very good piece.
