Unflown Apollo 14 Robbins medal, approximately 1.25″ in diameter, featuring a raised design of the mission insignia on the face. The reverse is engraved with the launch date of January 31, 1971, moon landing date of February 5, 1971, return date of February 9, 1971, and encircled by the astronauts' names in raised lettering. The sterling silver medal is unnumbered and includes its original case. The medal is accompanied by uncut pre-sample lead strikes of the obverse and reverse sides of the medallion, both approximately measuring 1.75″ x 1.5″, with back of obverse marked “D1317,” and back of reverse marked “J4742.” The date fields on reverse side are blank. Due to the toxicity of lead, extra care should be administered when handling these medal strikes.
