Am researching this item for my Dad.

From what little information I have discovered,

I know it is from 1877 NSW, Australia.

The head on the medal is of Hercules Robinson, Governor of NSW at the time.

I have a suspicion that it is from the 1877 NSW Exhibition?

There is another one at the Powerhouse Museum Collection

(That is where the photo is from):

Description Medal, awarded to Sir Hercules G. Robinson KCMG, Governor, 1877. Registration number N376-1

And it says that that one was actually awarded to the Governor

so I dont know if this was part of a collection given to him, or part of a collection made for the Exhibition and the Governor was Given one of the coins or what.

I am pretty sure that mine didnt belong to the governor but I could be totally mistaken.

Any infomation on history (or value) of this item,

what it was used for or given to, who it was made by -

anything at all really would be great!

Thanks :)

REED & BARTON 13.5" TEAPOT READS 1795 WITH THE (9) ON THE BOTTOM.

I am just trying to sell this piano. We are moving, and my husband has a bad back, also no room for it.

If anyone has any info on what these generally run for. Has some scratches. Some keys don't work.  

I have this beautiful and kind of mysterious small bracelet or large napkin holder that is probably early Danish or Scandinavian made. It is solid Silver 830S and about 1 ¾” in diameter. The design on one side appears to be a knight in a mail garment and a lady holding some sort of staff. They seem to be emerging from a castle keep on a ladder, eloping or escaping. The other side is a village with spired and mosque like buildings, sort of Byzantine looking. Floating above this is a man sitting up in a trunk or coffin like box.  There is a hallmark and 830S inside the band. I would appreciate any information on this item Thank you.
