<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Chris B, post: 4228475, member: 87179&quot;]I&#039;m finding my drawn more and more to medals. These are all 3 recent editions with historically significant themes. All 3 are hefty pieces.</p><p><br /></p><p>#1 Commemorates Viking I. It fits nicely in my space-themed collection. 134 grams of .999 silver. Made by the Medallic Art Company. I have several related ones in bronze but this is my first in silver.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1081734[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>#2 Is a piece commemorating Henry Hudson&#039;s exploration of the Hudson River. I also collect pieces related to the Hudson-Fulton Celebration. This is related but not an exposition piece. At 35.6 grams and 40mm it is the smallest of the 3. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1081733[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>#3 Bronze medal for the 50th Anniversary of the Union Miniere de Haut-Katanga by G.A. Brenet. It is 85mm and 238.6 grams. I honestly just bought it because I had never seen one before and, well, I just like it. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1081732[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
