Gold Medallion of Sir Winston Spencer Churchill
In 1965 a number of medallists produced medals or medallions of Sir Winston Churchill, in gold, silver or bronze.
The medal we feature on this page is one of the best, in our opinion, and was issued by A. Edward Jones of Birmingham. It is a magnificent large uniface medal with a realistic and lifelike portrait of the great man in semi profile to the left. It is beautifully engraved, struck in high relief.
Description - Large Medallion
A certificate which accompanies the medallion states:-
This Gold Medallion has been struck to commemorate the life of the Rt. Hon. Sir winston Churchill, K.G., O.M., C.H., M.P., 1874 - 1965, "The greatest man of our time."
The design portrays Sir Winston Churchill when he was at the height of his power and fame during the second World War.
Only 500 of these Medallions have been struck, and this certifies Number which number also appears on the back of this Medallion.
