3. Centennial Celebration of South Carolina Society - Wainwright

Beschreibung:: Alan V. Weinberg comments: The South Carolina Society was established in 1783 with? 1000 British? pounds donated by Samuel Wainwright. This version of the 1837 medal commemorates the founding of the Society and it is far rarer than the diestruck rev format. I'd surmise that this version was only given to the very few still surviving charter members of the Society. I don't recall seeing another of this rev. Engraved variety.

5. Centennial Celebration of South Carolina Society - Barbot

Beschreibung:: Alan V. Weinberg comments: While this silver membership medal commemorates the Centennial of South Carolina in 1837, the society issuing the medal existed well before as this member's society entry was clearly in 1828. Theoretically, there should be a very early, totally hand-engraved society member's medal but I've not seen one prior to the die struck version which is rare.

7. Connecticut Shapshooting Medal

Beschreibung:: Alan V. Weinberg comments: A very early and ornately engraved American silver sharpshooting medal with hi-relief hand-worked applied rim. Most early American sharpshooting medals are unique and uniquely hand-engraved in an era when sharpshooting was a popular pasttime and hunting was not only hazardous but frequently put food on the table.

9. Citizens of Boston to Geo. H. McCaffery, on gold double eagle

Beschreibung:: Alan V. Weinberg comments: Absolutely exquisitely made and perfect in every respect. I've not been able to discover the nature of the heroism event but it must have been a major accomplishment , given the nature and value of the award.
