Winner’s medal issued for the London 1948 Summer Olympics. Bronze, 51 mm, 64 gm, by Giuseppe Cassioli. The front, inscribed, “XIVth Olympiad, London, 1948,” features a ‘Seated Victory’ with the Colosseum in the background; the reverse portrays a winner carried by jubilant athletes. Complete with its hinged case by John Pinches (Medalists) Ltd., London, gilt-stamped on the lid: "The Olympic Games, London, 1948." These third-place winner’s medals are quite scarce given that only 300 of them were minted, and especially desirable when accompanied by the original case. A spectacular example of a handsome Olympic prize.
