Hi guys, I received a medal a few years back from a friend and have spent forever trying to do a little research on it but can't find anything. Maybe you can help. It is a medal from 1970, depicting the seal of the town of suffield on the front, along with the inscription "*Seal of the Town*Suffield, Connecticut*". On the back, is a scene of a tobacco farm, along with the inscriptions "300 Years" and "Heritage" and "Education" and "Progress". I have no clue about this coin. With it comes a litte sheet of paper with the history of Suffield, CT and it also says that it is a "Tercentenerary Commemorative Coin" (But it is definately a medal) and that it was designed by John J. Bokeny and Carol Woodrow Dabkowski. I have two versions of the coin. One in bronze(i think) and one in silver (again, i think). I know that pictures will help and will post them tomorrow. Any info on rarity, demand and value will be greatly appreciated.
Good advice Valente. I would also check with the local, or if they don't have one, the county historical society. They've helped me out a number of times in the past. You can get information on both organizations by searching "history Suffield CT" or a similar phrase. Good luck. Bruce
