Bronze medallion commemorating the attempt on Napoleon's life in
1800.
This medallion commemorates the unsuccessful assasination attempt by the so-called “infernal machine”
as he was headed to the opera. The obverse has a stunning bust of Napoleon as First Consul.
The reverse has a commemorative inscription. For condition, I’d
rate this medallion as “about uncirculated (AU).”
