Hello, my name is Jason, I am new to this website. I have recently come into possession of coins from my mother. Most are American coins from the 1870s-1940s. However, there is one coin/medal I cannot identify or find any information about. I do not know whether it is American or international, although It seems to be written in German. It was given to her by my grandfather, although I am not sure when. On the front it reads: "GROSSHERZOG VON LUXEMBURG ADOLPH". I believe it is depicting Adolphe, fourth Grand Duke of Luxembourg from 1817-1905. On the back it reads: "FESTIVAL WETTSTREIT ECHTERNACH 6 AUGUST 1893". There also appears to be an inscription near the bottom on the back, although I can't read it. Any information on it would be helpful. Thank you.
