This is my favorite that is in my possession... front, back, inside and inside the insides

... I have another prize I will be getting soon, but for now, this is my favorite. I've posted it before too, but oh well.

Goodyear medal, presumably given to a Goodyear dealer. Year unknown. Sorry for the fuzzy picture.

1904 St. Louis Exposition Grand Prize medal designed by Weinman.

Okay, something I do own: Opus 10 1910 Graf Helmuth von Moltke medal by Karl Goetz

Cathy, why am I not surprised.

Nice medals, all.

Here's one of my favs.

I love that Darwin medal of Scott's!

lordmarcovan · May 23, 2004 1:56PM

That thing did bring me luck, actually. The area where I found it was one of my hottest detecting hotspots in town. Lots of Indian cents, a Victorian Canadian large cent, some Barber dimes, and some neat tokens.

Aethelred · May 23, 2004 2:34PM

Is that an Islamo-Nazi on that medal Rob?

lordmarcovan · May 23, 2004 2:47PM

Quite a combo, eh?

You should tell the story behind your example of the same token!

Wyon's St George Rules

Nice medals. I don't collect them so I have nothing to offer on this thread.

Fishguard video / narration

lordmarcovan · May 23, 2004 11:26PM

Thanks for the video. 'Twas interesting. I'd never heard of that event.

phut · May 24, 2004 10:24PM

My only medal... so I guess it's my favorite

phut · May 24, 2004 10:31PM

lordmarcovan,
forgot to add with pic, but I believe this GW medal is in your Rulua book as a baker 169a copper

I kind of messed up on editing my medal graphic. There are no spots of color!

toyonakataro · May 25, 2004 4:27PM

I'm pretty amazed to see those high reliefs on the medals whitch can't be expected to see on coins.

lordmarcovan · May 25, 2004 6:02PM

Phut- that's a neat funeral medal!

Stork · May 25, 2004 6:51PM

Wow, those are some cool medals..and naturally Trozau has one with what appears to be St. George killing a dragon, and theboz has BBLs

.

It's fun to see what everyone likes!

I've got several nice french medals but this one continues to be my favorite due to its design elements and size.
1889 by Bottee, commem. of the Eiffel tower.

I won this

back in 1978, Greece, waterski junior's championship, first place overall (slalom , tricks and jump ).

39mm,artistically not very challenging, but I'm very attached to it.

boiler78 · May 29, 2004 7:43AM

Here is one of my favorites. The medal is struck in very high relief with very high rims which is not apparent in the image. It was awarded at the Grenoble art exposition in 1866.

farthing · May 29, 2004 7:51AM

Beautiful medal Boiler!
