Sažetak
From the rich Collection of medals in the Museum of Osijek 110 medals have been dealt with. These medals refer to international exhibitions, local and international fairs and associations. Croatia and Slavonia exhibited independently at most exhibitions, e.g.: in Paris, 1867, 1878 and 1889, the world exhibition in Vienna 1873, Trieste 1882, and again in Vienna in 1894. However, at any of the above exhibitions Croatia was presented to such extent as in Budapest 1896 at the Millennium Exhibition. Thus, that exhibition is of special interest for Croatia.
In the group of 110 medals, there are works of authors from Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic, France, England, e.g. Beck Ô. Fülôp (1873), Jules C. Chaplain (1839-1909), Josef C. Christbauer (1827-1897), Jean Baptiste D. Dupuis (1849-1899), Hubert Ponscarme (1827-1903), Carl Radnitzky (1818-1901), Louis O. Roty (1846-1911), Anton Scharff (1845-1903), Stefan Schwartz (1851-1924), Tony A. Szirmay (1851 -), Josef Tautenhayn (1837-1911), Wenzel Seidan (1817-1870), Teltsch (Teles) Ede 19th/207h century and many others.
Numerous exhibitors from Slavonia took part in this and in many other exhibitions. In order to improve economy of the region, products had been shown publicly at international exhibitions and many exhibitors were awarded.. The baron Gustav Prandau of Valpovo was awarded a bronze medal at the International General Exhibition in London, 1862 (catalogue no. 68, the craftsman Mato Kopf of Osijek was awarded a plaque (no. 69) and a medal (no. 70) at the International Exhibition in London, 1933. The factory in Cepin, near Osijek (no.72) was awarded at the International Exhibition in Paris, 1878 then Ivan
Kapistran II Adamovic Cepinski (no. 71) at the General Exhibition in Paris 1867.

The most obvious proof of that is a collection of medals dedicated to national and international fairs: Austria, France, Germany, Hungary.
