I recently acquired this medal / plaque honoring Admiral Richard Byrd and have been unable to find any information on it, not even an image on Google. Perhaps one of your subscribers can be of assistance. I contacted Joe Levine and he had no information other than he had sold one about two years ago, had never seen another and couldn't find anything out about it either.

It's about 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" with no edge markings and unsigned by either sculptor or mint. It is similar to and the same exact size as the Charles Lindbergh Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce Medal, they could have been struck on the same planchets. Images of the Byrd and Lindbergh medals are attached. Any information on either would be greatly appreciated.

Nice medal. Can anyone help? -Editor
