Message:: [QUOTE="Billincolo, post: 631396, member: 17389"]Thanks for the response and question. That question has been part of the puzzle. Shown in the photo below is everything I have on each of these. There is no indication of who made them -- From the logo on the paperwork, they are "official" licensed American Bicentennial Commission medals. They are "twins" of each other, though the golden medal doesn't have the mirror finish that the silver medal has. Both are in identical boxes, both labeled the same (see photo), with no labeling on the outside. The only official's name is "John Warner," on the flyer. (The flyer says nothing about the coin's metals, weight, etc.) One reason I'd like to find out exactly what these are and assign a value is that they were divided by a brother-in-law who called the golden coin "Gold," and equated its value "as gold" to the value of other coins which he divided between himself and the other sibling in the estate. He didn't use any kind of expert guidance in this. It's one of those messy family deals -- nuff said. If this golden coin is only gold plated, I need to know but after searching for hours, I can't find any definitive information online. Hope you can help -- someone -- <img src="http://www.nichebooks.com/allcoin/bicentennials.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
