Napoleon silver "Conquest of Upper Egypt" Medal L'An VII (1799) MS62 PCGS, Lec-10, Julius-694. 35mm. By Galle. A type easily reflective both of Napoleon's expert use of propaganda as well as his aspiration to surpass what he viewed as his Roman Imperial models, clearly drawing inspiration from Augustus' Nemausus dupondii. Lightened to an almost night-and-day contrast by its toning palette, the whole of the piece strikes the viewer as quite attractive for the grade.
