Hello all & Happy New Year!!
I'm hoping someone can help me with an approximate value of this medal. I was able to find one on ebay for $500...WOW! I know that most of the medals I have seen in this series sell for $30-$45.00. Is there something special about this particular medal? Or has this ebay member just decided to list this medal at a VERY inflated price.

I suspect this is the case. I don't know, though, you may have something good.
Rest in Peace

Regardless of what any seller prices items on ebay, in any category, it is always best to check the CLOSED sales for any give search. Granted, that usually only gives you the activity for an item in that search for 2-3 weeks, but if it is a popular item it will give you a much better idea of what an item actually sells for.

In this case, there is no record during that period of any medal or any "coin" or any other item in any of the categories that have actually sold in the recent history that is similar to the photos of the medal you provided.

Have you checked with any Bahai communities online? My wife was a Bahai many years ago but she can't help.
