Newbie collector of type and circulated Peace dollars, photographer of places and animals, player of instruments and builder of amplifiers, espresso industry professional, and a person distracted by shiny objects.
Playing from “medal”, and continuing the WW2 aviation theme, I’ll repost my maternal grandfather’s silver dollar-sized WW2 deployment medal from 1942.
Most of these Champion medals were struck in bronze, but Granddaddy (Dr. Logan T. Robertson) was the son of Champion’s cofounder, and as such, I suppose that’s how he merited one in silver. I’ve never seen any others in silver but have handled eight in bronze, which were awarded to other Champion employees who went off to fight the War.
Granddaddy was a medical doctor and an officer in the Army Air Corps. He served mostly stateside, at MacDill air base in Tampa, FL., where my mother was born in 1944.

If we were all the same, the world would be an incredibly boring place.

A Peace dollar I got a few days ago. A very nice coin in my opinion!
