Raymund Fugger, 1489-1535, Scholar and Patron of the Arts [obverse] 

This silver medal, created by German Renaissance artist Matthes Gebel, depicts Raymund Fugger, a scholar and patron of the arts, in profile. The inscription surrounding his head reads "RAYMUNDVS FVCCER." Gebel's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the rendering of Fugger's features and his curly hair. This medal, likely cast in the 16th century, is a testament to Gebel's skill in portraiture and his ability to capture the likeness of his subject.
