I recently managed to acquire a small collection of silver agricultural prize medals and I am now putting these medals up for sale.
This item is:
Large solid silver Victorian Welsh agricultural prize medal.
The front of the medal depicts an image of a farmer with a horse drawn plough & is engraved:
"WINNER. EVAN JAMES"
The obverse is engraved:
"ABERBANK 1894"
NOTE: My research indicates Aberbank is situated in the Ceredigion area of Wales but please do your own research.
Silver Medal: Weight: 59.8 gm. Diameter: 50 mm. The medal is not hallmarked but has been personally tested as solid silver. Maker's Mark (embossed below plough image): J. MOORE BIRMINGHAM.
Summary: Early agricultural medals are highly collectable & this is a superb example. I am happy to start the listing at just £65 but I have included a Buy it Now option if a buyer is not prepared to wait. Good luck!
