If anyone who doesn't win the giveaway wants one of these, they're fairly common. There is a group of three currently available on eBay. One sold a couple weeks ago for $1.25. Another didn't sell, at $4.95.

I found an eBay auction with more information about this piece. Text taken from this auction by boltonbob, but repeated here so that it's accessible after the listing expires:



<< <i>US Mint Medalette/Token Dated 1832 (Pa-Ph394) with the Lord's prayer on the reverse in near perfect condition. (Code in parenthesis from "Std Cat. of US Tokens 1700-1900 4th Edition" by Russell Rulau). This is one of several types of gold dollar-sized (13.4 mm) medalettes minted in the 1870's by George Soley on the U.S. Mint's first steam-powered coinage press which he bought as scrap metal. >>



fyi
