Two round metal commemorative medals, silver-tone with antique-style finish. One side shows a profile portrait labeled STEPHAN & JOSEPH MONTGOLFIER; the other shows a portrait labeled LEONARDO DA VINCI. Reverse sides show a hot air balloon with "FIRST ASCENT OF MAN" and 1783, and a flying-machine design with "CONCEPT OF MANNED FLIGHT" and 1490. Surface wear and tarnish visible, especially on the balloon-side reverse. No maker mark visible. Please check: metal composition, maker or issuing mint, weight, and any mint date or edge markings not shown in photos.
