A new medal.
This 1848 German bronze medal commemorates the founding of the German Fleet during the revolutionary movement for national unity. Graded MS63 by PCGS and cataloged as JuF-1173, it captures a defining moment in German naval history. The obverse depicts a crowned female allegory of Germania holding a spear and a shield bearing the double-headed eagle, extending her arm toward an impressive sailing warship with masts, rigging, flags, and cannons. Smaller vessels, gathered figures, military equipment, and decorative scrollwork enrich the maritime scene. The reverse features a German inscription celebrating the establishment of the fleet by parliamentary decision in Frankfurt on June 14, 1848, enclosed within an ornate quatrefoil frame, beaded circle, and ornamental border. The Frankfurt Parliament's naval initiative represented an important step toward German political unity. With its detailed engraving, historical significance, and PCGS certification, this bronze medal is an attractive addition to collections of German history and naval memorabilia.
