    I like the reverse on that medal.

    I've got 3 pieces of Apollo 11 memorabilia. Two of them ARE flown, but I don't have decent images of them. One is a small American flag and one is a (two-sided) sheet of the flight plan, the log if you will, (hours 82-84 from lift-off, basically they were circling the moon and getting the LM ready for landing).

    Here's the one item I have a decent photo of. It was NOT flown, but was signed by the crew before they left for the moon and was date-stamped on July 20, 1969, the day they landed on the moon.

    I really like the detail and relief of that medal.

    Skyman, you come up with nice surprises all the time. That memorabilia is cool.
