Gebhart has signed this medal with his personal mark, a cross over a crescent, at the end of the obverse legend. There was a bronze example in the Erbstein collection (lot 89). There were lead casts, of the obverse only, in the Tross collection (now in the Victoria and Albert Museum, Trusted 76), and the Merzbacher collection (lot 236).
