Comments

The medal shown here is a copy of a bronze medal signed Raymond Delamarre, which explains the "D'AP. R. DELAMARRE" in place of the signature. CGB presents an original bronze medal with the signature "R. DELAMARRE". There is no Monnaie de Paris mark on this bronze medal.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

La médaille représentée ici est une copie d'une médaille en bronze signée Raymond Delamarre, c'est ce qui explique le “D'AP. R. DELAMARRE” à la place de la signature.  CGB nous présente une médaille originelle en bronze où la signature est “R. DELAMARRE”.  Il n'y a pas la marque de la Monnaie de Paris sur cette médaille en bronze.
