I'll try to get this scanned later, but for now, I have a silver medal depicting the following:
Obverse: Angel motif.
To left it says:
ELIS
ATHENS
PARIS
ST LOUIS
LONDON
Beneath engraved in small lettering: B MACKENNAL
To right it says: In commemoration of the Olympic Games held in London 1908
Reverse: Chariot race motif with initials BM at lower left
Top edge of rim: Vaughton
Aside from being an Olympic commemorative medal, how can I tell if it's original? What's its value? I don't collect this stuff so any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Bob
