US vs Canada Chess Match 1976

As one of a hundred Canadian players in a friendly match to mark the 200th ann of US independence , I recieved a coin or medal as a gift from the US team (supposedly from President Ford). I long ago misplaced it. Does anyone know what we were given?T his is not a quiz as I don't know the answer.

    Another chess player!?!

    The only thing more remarkable than the number of platinum buyers here is the number of chess players.

    Being an old chess player myself, I know what kind of prizes they have at chess tournaments image

    It was probably a bicentennial quarter or half dollar - nothing special.

    I think they should make a Bobby Fischer commemorative.
    I manage money. I earn money. I save money .
    I give away money. I collect money.
    I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.
