<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 1581955, member: 24633&quot;]This is another medal that was produced by Medallic Art Company to celebrate the 75th anniversary of Nevada statehood in 1965. The medal&nbsp; was produced in 1964. I like the way they used the derrick as a scale&nbsp; with a train atop it traveling from the west, leaving the past&nbsp; represented by the Conestoga wagon and heading east to the future&nbsp; respresented by the rocket.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the reverse is a portrait of&nbsp; William F. &quot;Buffalo Bill&quot; Cody. Cody led a storied life as a military&nbsp; scout, Indian fighter, buffalo hunter and showman. For decades, his Wild&nbsp; West Show toured the US and Europe where he also gave command&nbsp; performances to monarchs and royalty of the day. During the late 19th&nbsp; century, Buffalo Bill Cody was the most recognizable person on the&nbsp; planet.</p><p><br /></p><p>This medal&nbsp; is 44mm, approximately 1.8 ozs. of .999 fine silver and is numbered on&nbsp; the edge C421. It is housed in a small presentation box that also has&nbsp; the number printed on it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
