TOPIC: THE UNITED EMPIRE – JAMES EPPS AND COMPANY, 1900, MEDALLET

Good Morning Again Everyone…..

After complaining about not winning the Langho Tribute Medal on eBay I guess I have to balance the scales by showing a medallion / medallet that I did win……

At a lot lower price of $20.00 US plus postage……. I wonder how many of these exist now with original silk ribbon and old style safety pin……
