This is a vintage 1983 John Deere Employees Credit Union commemorative medallion from Waterloo, Iowa. The solid brass, die-struck medal marks the credit union reaching $100 million in assets.
The front has a script "$100 Million in assets 1983." The back has the words "We Are Family" over a raised image of the credit union building with a flag and clouds. Below it are "John Deere Employees Credit Union" and "Waterloo, Iowa." There is a blank rectangular spot for engraving.
The medal comes in its original cream cardboard box with a folded "Our Family Is Growing" insert. The insert says the credit union was organized in 1934 and describes the medallion. A small walnut-tone wood block with a slot, and a felt-covered block, are included in the box. They look like parts of a display stand.
A great addition for collectors of John Deere memorabilia, credit union and bank advertising, commemorative medals, Waterloo Iowa items, and 1980s brass tokens.
