Dave Scott's unflown 14K gold Apollo 15 medallion, measuring 25 mm in diameter and weighing 11 gm, with a beautiful color rendering of the Apollo 15 emblem on the front, engraved on the reverse, "#9, This [went, struck through and etched 'unflown'] to the moon on Apollo 15, Dave Scott, CDR. A/15." Stamped "14K" at the bottom. In fine condition. Accompanied by a signed letter of provenance from Scott, in part: "I hereby certify that the Apollo 15 gold medallion (14k) included with this letter is from my personal collection and was prepared by Rockwell International as a memento of their Command and Service Module (CSM) spacecraft 'Endeavour,' which completed Apollo 15, the first extended scientific exploration of the Moon, July 26-August 7, 1971. The front of this 25mm gold medallion shows the Apollo 15 mission insignia in colored enamel on the gold background...This medal was excluded from the Apollo manifest due to overall mission weight limitations; therefore as indicated in the engraving on the reverse side it did not go to the Moon." From the personal collection of Dave Scott.
