George Sagendorph

George Adam Sagendorph (July 25, 1821 - January 20, 1895) was an American jeweler and watch-case maker, notable for his Sagendorph Battery medical medallion.

Background
Sagendorph began his career in Rhode Island before taking up business in New York in the mid-1860s, where he became involved with the "New York Petroleum Prize Company", a gift enterprise scam (of which he was a Director and Treasurer), and "G.A. Sagendorph & Co.", a mail-order vendor of cash-on-delivery watches represented in advertising as being imported from the "Geneva Royal Gold Watch Company" (a fraud identical with the Elias' "Geneva Watch Company" swindle), and later the Sagendorph Battery.
