Description

Encapsulated and graded by PCGS SP63BN. Rare participation medal issued for the Stockholm 1912 Olympics. Bronze, 51 mm, 55 gm, by Bertram Mackennal/Erik Lindberg. The front features a raised quadriga with charioteer and judge, preparing to present an athlete with the palm of victory; the reverse bears Zeus seated on a Ionic column in relief, holding a small figure of the goddess Nike, with the city of Stockholm in the background and raised lettering along the top. The medal bears some uneven toning. This is a rare bronze—only 100 were struck.
