rkennedy1945 Valued Member United States 130 Posts	Posted 12/05/2024 4:43 pm I can not find any information on this coin. I have been to the libraries and can not find any information, who minted it, what metal, quantity printed, value, other information. This was in my dad's items. Thank you in advance.

Spence Moderator United States 34395 Posts	Posted 12/05/2024 6:46 pm @rke, that is an interesting commemorative medal. Thx for posting. The inscriptions are clear enough, but I agree that there isn't much web presence for this piece. Have you considered reaching out to the Singaporean Cricket Association directly?

Sap Moderator Australia 16808 Posts	Posted 12/05/2024 9:18 pm Just a clarification on the nomenclature: this is a "medal", not a "coin" or "token". Cricket is not a popular sport in Singapore, despite the strong British colonial influence there. Singapore, as a heavily developed island city-state, just doesn't have the wide open spaces you need for cricket fields. A relatively obscure sporting-memorabilia medal from an obscure sport in (what is for you) a foreign country, is not going to have much value, unless for some reason they actually made this medal out of solid gold. Gold was pricey in the early 1980s, so I would assume it isn't. Though you could always get it tested, to be sure. Here's a kind-of-similar medal from the same club, from 1984, listed on a Singaporean ebay clone for Sing$25 (about US$18): https://www.carousell.sg/p/singapor...-1015142926/ I would expect a market price for your medal to be in a similar ballpark. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
