rikcando Valued Member Canada 287 Posts	Posted 02/16/2011 11:26 pm This is another medallion I picked up and I am hoping someone might have some information on it. I believe it is aluminum. It is approximately 38mm in diameter and weighs in at 8.1 grams (9.6g minus 2x2). The legend on the bottom reverse is shown here. It appears to say 'Thomas Fattorini Ltd. B'Ham'. Is this common on this medallion. Although it appears to be uncirculated, and the rim shows no wear whatsoever, the leaves along the right side seem like they have been smoothed over. The left hand side leaves do not show this as bad, but it is there. Report this Post to the Staff

rikcando Valued Member Canada 287 Posts	Posted 02/18/2011 10:48 am I did receive a response from the company, but it was not good news. Quote: Unfortunately we can't access records of your particular medal as our resources are very limited. I have attached a George V coronation medal leaflet which illustrates similar aluminium medals that may be of interest and which were made around that time. Would it be OK to add your images to records? Kind regard {name removed} Postmaster Thomas Fattorini Ltd I told them yes. Almost willing to pay the $10 for this one now. Report this Post to the Staff
rikcando Valued Member Canada 287 Posts	Posted 02/23/2011 6:55 pm Ok, I broke down and bought both this medal and the 1911 medal. I paid $15 for the pair. Report this Post to the Staff
