79 Kaiserlicher Orden der Reunion

 Bronze - silver plated, without back cover. For the breast star of the 1st model of the Imperial Order of the Reunion, founded by Napoleon on October 11, 1811, various designs were submitted among which the finally realized form was finally chosen. The medallion of the design offered here, for example, still shows the imperial eagle above the throne, instead of the cross of the Legion of Honor in the actually realized model. The inscription in the center  is also missing on this prototype.

Very high quality, probably contemporary design piece of great interest for the history of this rare order.
