Austrian Carl Andorfer uniface Judaica bronze plaque by Hans Schaefer 1906
Austria: Carl Andorfer uniface commemorative bronze plaque, 1906, by Hans Schaefer; size: 3.15 x 5.65cm; weight: 33.3g. Obverse: left facing Andorfer, name below; "Vienna 1906" beneath + Schaefer's name at base. Andorfer (1852- 1912) was a famous numismatist, owner of "Andorfer & Bachmann", vice-president of the Numismatic Society from 1902 to 1905, and helped create a large collection of medals commemorating musicians (bought by Paul Niggl), which formed basis of book he published (1907), " Musica in Nummis". This medal probably honors Andorfer's services to the Society. In UNC; Forrer v.5 p.350.
