Watch List notes:

SARDINIA: Charlo Emmanuel III, 1730-1773, AE medal, 1746, 33mm, Lifting of the Siege of Alessandria, 17th February 1746 negotiated by Carlo Emmanuel (a chapter in the War of Austrian Succession), his bust left; CAR EM D G REX SAR CYP ETIER / a balance scale; hexagonal symbol in left pan, castle and lis in right pan with a ribbon attached reading ET GENVA; around outer legend ARX ALEX LIBERATA SVB M CARALIO M JOMARTY 1746; ATTAMEN NON SVFFICIT ("However, it is not enough"), VF to EF. The Treaty of Dresden, signed on Christmas Day 1745 between Prussia and Austria meant that Austria could now focus forces on Italy. However, the Austrians, under Charles Emmanuel, needed time to prepare and entered into negotiations with the French that resulted in the event commemorated by this fascinating medal. Once the Austrian forces were in place, they disregarded this goodwill move by the French and proceeded to re-open, successfully from the Austrian point of view, the war in Italy.
