<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 1250061, member: 24633&quot;]It is probably bronze.</p><p><br /></p><p>When some cities and towns celebrate their centennial, bicentennial, tercentenary (etc) anniversaries they often contract a private mint to make such medals that they can sell to help offset the cost of the celebration. I have a couple hundred from towns in New England. Most of these were produced by Medallic Art Co. (MACO) and were struck in a variety of metals.....silver, antique silver, copper, bronze, pewter and gilded bronze.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s very unlikely that you will find any history on the medal unless the name of the designer and/or the mint that produced it is somewhere on the medal.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
