- GERMANY. Hamburg. The Reopening of St. Michael's Church and 200th Anniversary of the Birth of Sonnin Silver Medal, 1909. PCGS SPECIMEN-63 Gold Shield. Gaedechens-2753. By H. Lorenz. Obverse: Uniformed bust left of Ernst Georg Sonnin left, wearing tricorne hat; Reverse: Facade of St. Michael's Church. Quite attractively toned, with mostly steely gray fields and a golden brilliance highlighting the devices. The original St. Michael's was completed in 1669, though it was destroyed in 1750 by a lightning strike. In 1762, the second version was initially completed under the purvey of Sonnin and Johann Leonhard Prey, though this too was to suffer an unfortunate fate-first catching fire in 1906 and then being badly damaged during the allied bombings of 1944-5. Estimate: $100 - $200. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
