Title
Modern Medal from Cleethorpes
Description
English:  : Copper Alloy

Medal, commemorating the 65th birthday of noted German archaeologist and wartime internee Gerhard Bersu. This was in 1954; information kindly proffered by Dr Craig Barclay. The finder recalls Bersu's appearance along with Sir Mortimer Wheeler on the early television programme Animal, Vegetable, Mineral. Bersu also published his account of Viking graves on the Isle of Man in 1965, and this may have also have required his presence in the UK.

Obverse description: Bust left; inscribed signature right perhaps reads CR 65

Reverse inscription, on five lines: GERHARD BERSU ZUM 65 GEBURTSTAG VON SEINEN FREUNDEN.

Diameter: 88.6mm, Thickness: 5.1mm, Weight: 190.82gms, die axis: 12.
