Great looking medals. Didn't realize that George Gershwin passed away at such a young age. Interesting that the titles of his best known works are in the legends.

I haven't bought a Niagara Falls token for a while, but I liked this one as soon as I saw it posted on ebay. I enjoy tokens and medals depicting Niagara Falls, because my family visited there about once a year when I was a kid. I'm sure the manufacturing company advertised on the token also made a lot of the pieces in my collection. It is about 35mm and is aluminum.

Looks great, captainrich. I wonder why Niagara Falls was not selected for an "America the Beautiful" quarter.

Just a little scanner play this weekend. Here's a pretty scarce silver Bank of Ireland halfcrown token, denominated XXX Pence, dated 1808, and toned steely grey. Davis 84, S1616, KM TN-4.

Fantastic token, daltonista!
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures
