Pedro II 1884 złoty medal dla Thomasa Driendla VC-unl. Meili-unl. (por. Meili-168 dla okazów miedzi i srebra). Złoto, 46 mm, 85,95 g. Nieobiegowa z włoskowatymi liniami powierzchni, drobnym wybrzuszeniem krawędzi nad "PEDRO II" na godzinie 10 na awersie wspomnianym dla dokładności. Thomas Georg Driendl (1849-1916) był urodzonym w Niemczech brazylijskim malarzem i architektem oraz jednym z najważniejszych brazylijskich pejzażystów w XIX wieku. Został nagrodzony tym ogromnym złotym medalem podczas brazylijskiej wystawy narodowej w 1884 roku, wraz z trzema innymi artystami, w tym Georgem Grimmem, wymienionymi jako "1. złoty medal" (Primera Medalha de Ouro). Niezwykle rzadki i prawdopodobnie wyjątkowy, ponieważ jest to jedyny potwierdzony przykład tych dużych złotych medali o średnicy 46 mm Automatically translated

Pedro II 1884 gold Award Medal to Thomas Driendl VC-unl. Meili-unl. (cf. Meili-168 for copper and silver specimens). Gold, 46mm, 85.95 grams. Uncirculated with surface hairlines, a minute edge bump above "PEDRO II" at 10 o'clock on the obverse mentioned for accuracy's sake. Thomas Georg Driendl (1849-1916) was a German-born Brazilian painter and architect and among the most important paisagists of Brazil in the 19th century. He was awarded this massive gold medal during the Brazil National Exposition of 1884, along with three other artists including Georg Grimm, all listed as "1st Gold Medal" (Primera Medalha de Ouro). Excessively rare and possibly unique since it's the only confirmed example of these large 46mm gold medals
