Here is a medallion for commemorating King Charles III's coronation which was three months ago on 6th May 2023. I know it's a commemorative "trinket" but I do really like the coronation emblem and the king's cypher, so, I'm happy :) But what is the difference between a monogram and a cypher?

Cercle du Bibliophile is (or was? I can't find much information about them) a French book publisher. I must admit, I don't know much about their books, but I do like their medallion :) (Single sided, 40mm bronze)

Today for , one for most of us who are technologically inclined. Saint Isidore, a Hispano-Roman scholar, theologian, and archbishop of Seville, and more recently, patron saint of computers and the Internet. (Feast day was April 4, so I'm only 4 1/2 months late!)

Here's a nice big piece, commemorating the Railway Engineering Conference held in Brisbane, in June 1985 (17th - 19th, so if I'd been on the ball this would have been perfect for last week!) - the main theme of the conference that year was "Electrification - Railways to the year 2000", so featuring one of Queensland Rail's new (introduced between 1979-1986) EMU units seems fitting.

Medal Monday! 🏅
Was war das bitte für ein super Wochenende! Zwei Halbmarathons bei großer Hitze, erst am Samstag der Himmelgeister Brückenlauf und am Sonntag der Rhein-Ruhr-Halbmarathon in Duisburg. Das hat echt Spaß gemacht. Erstaunlicherweise fiel mir der Lauf am Sonntag sogar leichter als der am Samstag.

終於收到倫敦馬的獎牌。很抱歉,是虛擬賽的獎牌。告訴你一個小秘密︰本來我抽中了今年倫敦馬的實體名額,可是因為不確定今年四月自己是否能去倫敦,所以……。🥲2020年前的我是一定不會放棄這個機會的。呀,我又想起自己亦曾抽中2020年的柏林馬,若非這該死的疫情,現在的我已經完成五大馬拉松,只剩下那遙不可及的波馬?無奈我身處這個平行宇宙……。😅(我知自己的樣子很憔悴,但懶得再影了。)

... who steals the show wherever she goes but especially on this day. Kind of odd to hit the 5k mark at about the same time I used to finish the race, but I'm not displeased. Grateful to be able to shuffle one more time (this was my 13th), hopeful and determined for a comeback this season and to challenge again next year.

2/2

Here is my contribution. The Australian Native PNC featuring the Tasmanian Tree . This one is Number 1289 of 3300, First day of issue, 10 July 2018, Hoppers Crossing, VIC, 3029. The medallion itself features a clear window and that beautiful frog.

I wonder if my Asian speaking friends can help with this one. It's just a cheap souvenir piece, which came honouring fighters - I have a handful of pandemic themed pieces so was interested. Can anyone translate the text please?
