Art Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 WOW! I like it too. That's a great commemorative medal. Do you have one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabbs Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 Neat, especially the columns and the hint at the vault. What I don't like that much is the two hyphenations. Do you know whether it was issued on some specific occasion? Christian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know whether it was issued on some specific occasion? Christian I'll try and post a pic of the medal from a different angle so you can see how the vault is. Looking at the image I posted, one might get the impression that the medal is not perfectly round which it is. Not sure if there was any specific occasion for its issue. I do know, however, that the proceeds of the sale of these went towards the hospitals and such that they support/run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tabbs Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Now that I had not expected. Pretty bulky indeed but with a great relief! Christian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
