Thank you, Stig. I guess my bewilderment is because I think of these as historical pieces from the Hessian & SHSG families & not something that would be traded in for work on a new piece. How did they come into the possession of Prince Henrik?
According to the write-up, these medallions were given by Prince Henrik "to Danish jeweller, John Rørvig, and his heir sold them to Nyfortuna as the present owner"....?!
