100 Year Old Medals
« on: February 09, 2015, 09:12:19 pm »
Last weekend my grandmother gave me two very old medals, I know little to nothing about them.

What I know:
  • They're 100+ Years old.
  • They're from Seattle, Washington.
  • One medal is from 1912
  • One medal is from 1915

Any additional information about these medals would be appreciated, I'm curious of their value.

The first one is a Masonic Knights Templar medal

Hey, thanks! :) Do you happen to know how much it could sell for?

I believe the other one is a badge for the 41st annual meeting of the Imperial Council of the "Ancient Arabic Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine" (Shriners).

Thank you, that's really interesting. Do you have any idea on what It's valued at?  ???

masonic jewels are quite collectable here in the uk, we had a lecture at the lodge about it just a few months ago. rare ones can be £100's. others can be picked up for £20.
