As rare as it gets original Bronze medal struck With The Byrd Antarctic Expedition to the South Pole issued by the Town of Stamford Connecticut, Presented by Fellow Citizens of his Home Town, Harold I. June, underneath reads replicas in bronze, under that reads In Commemoration of Antarctic Flight Over the South Pole, November 29th 1929. Original patina untouched, This was struck in a very limited number for dignitaries that attended the ceremony. In fact the exact same coin sits in the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum Collection and can be viewed on their site, further interesting is the medal that resides in the Smithsonian Collection also reads under name replicas in bronze, to use the term uncommon at best would be beneath this beauty, rarer than hens teeth, amazing piece of aviation history.
