	Napoleonic medal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Napoleon I of France celebrated his accomplishments with an extensive set of commemorative medals struck by the Paris Medal Mint.
		The exact number of these medals is not precisely known since the official records of Napoleon's reign, including the list of medals struck by the mint, were erased by King Louis XVIII.
		The most definitive catalog of Napoleonic Medals was created by a collector named Bramsen in three volumes published between 1904 and 1913.

		While Napoleon had massive success against the native Mamluk army (his 25,000 strong invading force defeated a 100,000 army), his fleet in Egypt was largely destroyed by Nelson at The Battle of the Nile, so that Napoléon became land-bound.
		Napoleon is credited with introducing the concept of the modern professional conscript army to Europe, an innovation which other states were forced to follow.
		Furthermore, the Napoleonic Wars also exported the Revolution to the rest of Europe, and it is believed that the movements of national unification and the rise of the nation state, notably in Italy and Germany, were rooted in and precipitated—if not caused—by the Napoleonic rule of those areas.

	Napoleonic Medals ix.
		Napoleon's acquisition of Etruria gave him the port of Livorno (Leghorn as the British barbarized it), blocking the entry of British goods there, as well as giving him a source of sailors for the navy he hoped to reestablish.
		Napoleon's brother-in-law, Murat, was able to carry out that mission, and Napoleon promoted his brother Joseph from king of Naples to king of Spain.
		Napoleon, however, had been recalled to Paris by the disturbing news that Talleyrand and Fouche, probably conspiring with Napoleon's sister Caroline, had formed a plan to take over the government of France, with Caroline's husband Murat as ruler, in case Napoleon was killed in Spain.

		The Paris Mint was restructured in 1832 and a new policy was instituted; the application of edge-marks on medals struck in precious metals from dies that were owned by the Mint.
		Whether a plain edged Napoleonic medal was struck during the Napoleonic period must be judged by its patina, the quality of the strike and the details of the medal.
		In the case of base metal medals, consideration must be given to the fact that medals produced between 1832 and 1841 were not edge marked.
