Vatican 1963 Sede Vacante Medal NP

The nice postman brought this and a year 6 Paul VI medal (also gold) yesterday.

Size is 37-38mm and this beauty contains 33 gms of .750 gold.

I've seen/have these in AE and AR. However, I hadn't seen a Camerlengo (Chamberlain) medal before in gold so I reached a bit more than I'd normally pay. Interestingly, except for the date 1963 and 1958 have the same design since the same Cardinal was Camerlengo at both times.

By the way, I am missing a 1958 Camerlengo medal so if anyone has one, especially in silver, I'm a buyer. (I'm also looking for a 1903 in silver, but lets not get greedy!)
