GAR (Grand Army of the Republic) veteran's gold service medallion (.209 ozt of 14k or 18k gold.) The inscription reads: "Presented to Comrade John Miller by Post No. 17 G.A.R. for 12 years gratuitous service as Quartermaster of The Post." Probably awarded about 1900 for service to a post with members comprised of Civil War veterans. We have not ascertained the fineness of the gold, but the medal likely contains between .123 ozt and .159 ozt of pure gold. The historical significance adds a marked premium. (Image)
