Jewish Medals
Cyrus Adler and Albert Wolf Soon wrote in the Jewish Encyclopedia that the first engraved Jewish medals were from the middle of the fifteenth century.
They bring some later examples such as:
1875. Synagogue at Pribram with a shield of David on the reverse
1888. Founding of a Frankfort lodge with a shield of David on the obverse
1900. Stepney Jewish School: with a shield of David on the reverse.
