Teddy Memorial. I don't know if reverse would be politically correct now. Hunter would probably be replaced by outdoorsman or sportsman. I like the original just fine.

CheetahCat-
am going to try that photo technique you showed me. it is so simple, don't know why it never occurred to me. it will be great on highly reflective surfaces.

Here's an interesting parade medal issued by the Philadelphia Mint Employees. The city of Philadelphia hosted a parade to welcome former President Grant back to the US after a two year hiatus abroad. It was expected that Grant may run for a 3rd presidential term in 1880, however the nomination eventually went to Garfield.

This token is imaged using axial lighting to show the prooflike surfaces. It resides in an NGC holder, graded MS65.
