Very similar to 824.1.1. This medal is not signed but it is known that the Calcutta firm of Pulin Dutt acted as agent for the Society. Thus this medal is believed to be a product of the Calcutta Mint although this has not been confirmed. Appears to be a later striking but is listed here for convenience.
The Agri-Horticultural Society of India also known as the Calcutta Agri-Horticultural Society. |
