Wereldtentoonstelling in het Palais de l'Industrie te Parijs, ter ere van Eugenie, keizerin der Fransen, penning geslagen tijdens de tentoonstelling met een muntpers van Maison Cail & Cie. 1855

This silver medal, created by Armand-Auguste Caqué, commemorates the 1855 World's Fair held in Paris, France. The obverse features a profile portrait of Empress Eugénie, wife of Napoleon III. The reverse depicts the Palais de l'Industrie, the site of the exhibition, with an inscription describing the event. This small but detailed medal, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a fascinating artifact of 19th-century French history and industrial design.
