Comment
Fine Arts Academy prize medals were changed in 1798, both gold and silver ones.The small gold medal was not totally changed, but the older stamps by Adzer (Galster 450) were re-used with only little changes: the reverse legend in exergue is different and have the sign of Jacobson; while the obverse was unchanged
