Description

Flown sterling silver Apollo 8 Robbins medallion, measuring approximately 1.5˝ x 1.25˝, featuring a raised design of the mission insignia on the face—an "8" looping around the Earth and Moon, reflecting both the mission number and the circumlunar nature of the mission. The reverse is engraved with the mission dates, "Dec. 21–27, 1968," and serial number, "280." Stamped below with the Robbins "Sterling" hallmark. Condition is mint state, with minor tarnishing. A superb flown keepsake from the historic Apollo 8 mission, representing mankind's first journey to the 'dark side of the moon.'
