THOUGHTS ON THE 1876 CENTENNIAL C.A.G.E MEDAL MYSTERY

Marc C. Ricard writes:
Could C.A.G.E. simply stand for "Centennial Art Gallery Exhibitor"? The building depicted is the Memorial Hall that housed the Art Gallery of the exhibition. Could this be a participation or appreciation medal presented to the artists whose work was displayed? I have not yet been able to find out if a medal was given to the artists, but I will research further.
