I have a couple of people interested in identifying their medals and wanted to see if anyone could help out...
This first one is described as being found by an old church. No other information was given....
This next one is described as follows: "I found it in a pond and it had been there for many years. Whatever it's made of it did not rust under water and is gold in color. I thought maybe the men on here were presidents. There's writing above each name, but its worn so bad I can only make out the word Alexander above the middle image. I would like to know what it is, who the men in the images are, and about when it was made." Photo is a bit blurry I know... Thanks in advance.

Is that blue paint on the first medal? What is the date? 1885? Is it round or oval?
Do you have an image of the small medal's reverse? Could you image each medal again next to a quarter or nickel to show approximate size? Maybe add some close-up pics?
