I couldn't pass up this pair of ANA medals from the 1987 Convention in Atlanta. They came in a mint condition original box with blue velvet lining and the original box slip cover with a sticker indicating the serial number. The boxed serialized medals for this year are among the scarcer of the modern ANA medals with a mintage of only 200 pieces. The silver medal was only available in this box set, whereas the bronze medal was available as a badge (with mounting ring and ribbon and no serial number; mintage 1,000) and as a 57 mm larger type boxed medal (mintage 150).

 

This is a surprisingly hard set to find, and I looked a great while -- given the horses on the obverse I had to have them! :grin:

Very happy to add a nice example of this key date. This is actually the third one of these I've bought after I wasn't happy with my first G4 piece or my F15 one (both bought a while ago). This is graded VF30 although I think I would call it VF25.

OK, I posted these in a thread reporting on the ANA. However, I had Todd take some shots of the coins at the Long Beach show which turned out pretty good so I thought I'd share. Both coins acquired at the Anaheim ANA.
