The “ Loge Les Admirateur’s de l’Univers“ was instituted August 2, 1808,” and is still working. This is probably the rarest of the three medals of the Lodge.

Obverse.—A globe, on which are meridian lines, &c’. Legend, -‘ Admirateurs de l’univers,” entirely surrounding the globe, and there is a dot at the bottom,

Reverse.—The square and compasses below the square two branches of acacia crossed. Legend above, Tolerance et Progres” (Tolerance and Progress), and below. “ ~ 836 ~,” The rosettes
are very small.

Toleration was the watchword of French Masonry at this time, when great efforts were making to harmonize the various disputes growing out of the rites of the high degrees in France.

21 mm. Silver
