Prise de Menin, France.
This unusual uniface medal is unlisted in Hennin. That was something of a surprise since Hennin listed almost everything of the Revolution up until the Consulate.
There isn't much information in the books; obviously six Austrian grenadiers are surrendering to a single French solder. We're left wondering if the solder's name was Menin. I suspect this is an event that happened during, or after the battle of Schliengen between Archduke Charles and Moreau. 71 mm.
