Here is a neat pick up of mine.

It is a gold medal from Trinity Medical College in Toronto. It was awarded to Charles Mackay in 1891.
As you can see in this excerpt from a Trinity College calendar, it shows all the medal recipients for that year.

Truly an interesting piece.

Definitely an interesting piece! Thanks for sharing!

Do you know any details about MacKay's career in medicine?

I don't know much about Charles other than that he practiced in Seaforth Ontario and died there in 1935.
