Kisskrazed New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 03/28/2016 10:01 am Thought I would share a medal I found. This 1912 fair medal was found while metal detecting in Cincinnati. The A & M colored Association medal. I contacted the University of Kentucky archives & they stated this medal was from an African American only fair that was held in Lexington Ky. Sept 10th-14th 1912. The horse represents that this medal was given to a person that was judging the horse competitions. They sent me a link to the fair program, judging criteria etc. They did not have any images of medals from this era. Report this Post to the Staff

Here's a properly oriented pic of the medal for easier viewing ... Is there a reverse maker's mark? Edited by ExoGuy 03/30/2016 4:15 pm Report this Post to the Staff
