P. The image I used( ebay) said Metal arts co. You could be correct. The op needs to tell us what the obverse? of his medal reads.

edit: same company? This one reads metal arts co. http://www.ebay.com/itm/The-White-H...em589fa663ef

edit, edit: at least we are having fun!

Some corporate history:

Bastian Brothers was all but acquired by MetalArts in 1981. Did the "White House" die for this medal get changed that year to read Metal Arts Co?
