Picked this up from a board member. Not my photos and not in hand yet. I didn't even know PL Franklins existed until recently, and they do not seem to be easy to locate.

Jom,

 

I think you have me mixed up with Jimmy Hayes.

He had a collection I could only dream of owning !!

Just received this medal today. I can't find too much information on it, and it seems neither could NGC when they graded it. It does not bear a date, but I believe this silver version of the medal was struck at the same time (in 1976) as the copper version indexed on the American Numismatic Society website. Nonetheless, I liked the design.

 

The edge inscription is "Medallic Art Co. NY 0.999+ Pure Silver"

That's a gorgeous medal and I love the pictures.

 

Thanks coindude. It's super high relief, so I had to do a 2 image focus-stack of the obverse and of the reverse so that I could keep all of the design in focus.

 

I'm still researching it online now. I'm pretty sure it's a Frank Hagel design (thus the "FH" you can see on the obverse at about 4-o'clock). He's an historical artist from Montana (b. 1933) who designed around 50 or so medals in the 1970s for Medallic Art Co. and is also well known for his paintings.
