103. Michigan State Agricultural Society

Descrição:: Alan V. Weinberg comments: This medal is apparently unknown without massive obverse rim cuds. For some reason - perhaps the low relief rims and the expansive fields - it always comes scuffed up. This is the finest I've seen and it still exhibits contact marks. I've never seen a gold specimen, if it exists. The silvers are only scarce.

105. Portland Mechanic's Fair

Descrição:

Alan V. Weinberg comments: Portland Oregon, not Maine. Decades ago I owned a high carat gold specimen with this same design but only perhaps 22 mm diameter. I've been trying to re-acquire it for decades.

The medal is based on the Portland city seal, with the female figure representing Commerce.
