greetings friends of today bringing you a piece of my collection with an error not of stamp but a more specific design error in a word that I will comment on later
this beautiful piece that is a medal of one ounce of pure bronze was for a medical congress in venezuela in 1956
For this congress, these medals were manufactured in a company that is in charge of making luxury pieces, medals of all kinds, said company called Huguenin, located in Switzerland. Now, what is wrong with this beautiful piece? So let's talk about the design.
This piece has on one of its faces the god Esculapio and his daughter Higia, in Spanish they would be ESCULAPIO E HIGIA,a very well detailed piece that in the photos you don't see all the details but it is a beautiful piece, now the design error is in the name of HIGIA it is written with H and on the medal it is without H saying igia, an error For this reason, after years of medical congresses in Venezuela, they ordered the manufacture of these medals in other companies, but they preferred not to have errors in design, but the quality dropped a lot.
the following years the quality was low, maintaining the same design but not as detailed and the material was not an ounce of bronze, it was a metal with some other golden material that is not gold, finally because of that mistake the following medals were already another story
and the other side of the medal contains more information about the congress that itself was the logo that was maintained for many years, I don't know if these congresses still exist but anyway I hope you like this informative post and I leave you this question
Would they give the company a new opportunity for the mistake they made but maintain the same quality? Or would you prefer to hire another company with lower quality but without design errors like the one I mentioned? leave your answers lol
