Horn 30 Russia Russian medals from the collection Otto Horn:Otto Horn (1880-1945) was a German wine merchant and collector. At his death he left around 65,000 coins medals and seals. More than 10,000 pieces found their way to the Dresdner Münzkabinett, the rest were auctioned in batches in Germany. The Russian medals from his collection offered here have probably been stored in poor conditions; most show traces of corrosion and/or cleaning to a greater or lesser extent. The collection includes many scarce and rare items. 2004 1704 - Medal ‘Capture of Narva’ (Diakov 21.18) - bronze 46 mm - F/VF - rare - ex Coll.
