1915 Panama Cross (PPIE)


Representative Images
in Panama Medals (currently in collection)
Panama, 1915. Panama Cross type medal for the Panama Pacific International Exposition held in San Francisco, 1915.  While not specifically a Panama medal, I am including it in the Panama Medals category, since the word Panama is prominent.  On the obverse in the center is a leaf type design with a crown above and the year 1915 below.   On the reverse Panama is in the center.  At the edges of each section are words.  At bottom Pacific; at left Internat'l; at right Exposition; at top San Francisco.  The medal has a loop attached at the top, and the partial remains of a black ribbon.  The medal has the appearance of being lead or pewter ?  The overall size is 42 x 42 mm.  With the loop is 49 mm tall.  Weight is 26.45 grams.
