Key Swiss Shooting Medal

It has been a while since I picked up a rare piece. Not much out there. This is a bronze version of a "highly common" silver piece with 633 minted.

This one has only 165 minted in bronze

    Very nice piece! I am always amazed at how you happen across these and I have never seen one in person. It truly is an area of this hobby which I never get the chance to see in any collection I have been privileged to look upon. -Dan
