Probably my favorite pictures I have of my reenacting career so far. Mostly for a joke. But still a good picture!

What do you guys think about this one? No serial number.

Does anyone have any information on this 1951 shooting event?  There are no names on the medal backs.    

Hopefully something more positive.   Ukrainian bills were given as a gift from someone from Ukraine that I ordered from :)

Interesting. I never would have guessed that.  mikie

And just a footnote to your outstanding description,  the example that I purchased from Adam included its original case like the one pictured in John and Allen's book.  In fact, while I didn't see an attribution for that photo, I believe it might be the medal and case I purchased from Adam, that he would have photographed.   Like the auction example, mine is not hallmarked, at least not on the edge or anywhere else I've found.  My medal came with a ribbon drape similar to the original Deweys.   Adam told me that he had acquired both from a collector/dealer also well known and 100% reputable for authenticity to anyone collecting over the past 40 years.    Quare:  1) if the medal was to be scrapped, why did Tiffany quality control, which we assume is tremendous, go to the bother and expense of attaching a chain and brooch;  and 2)  boxes are scarcer than medals, as any collector knows.  for obvious durability issues.    They get tossed, lost, crushed, or wear out.   So if mine where destined for the scrap heap rather than delivery to a customer,  to end up with an authentic case,  we'd have to assume someone was able to get a medal diverted from scrapping and happened to have a spare case that lacked a medal, and then sold them to a reputable dealer.    Maybe, maybe not.    Point I'm trying to make, is that absent a declaration or other evidence on the scrapping issue from Tiffany,  or that all Till medals were hallmarked (be great to hear from a documented original owner, if any still alive and compos mentis), I wouldn't stake my eye-teeth that either medal was bound for the scrap-heap, or that the original issue Till medals all had hallmarks.    I don't know.   But under any possible alternative on the hallmark and scrapping  issues,  I'm glad to have my Till Dewey and an original case.  The tell-tale die crack "fingerprint" and the hallmark or no hallmark theories, just make it more interesting for me.   

Amazing and historic group...thank you for sharing it!

That certainly gave me a good chuckle after I translated it xD.

Amazing preservation!
