Buzz Aldrin’s flown Gemini 12 Fliteline gold-plated sterling silver medallion, 1″ diameter, with the front featuring a raised design of the mission insignia and the reverse engraved with the mission date, "November 11-15, 1966," and raised text, "Gemini Twelve." Condition is mint state, with slight scuffing and wear.
Accompanied by a flight-certified letter of provenance signed by Aldrin, who states: “This medallion was carried on the Gemini XII mission and flew in space during November 11 to 15, 1966. It is one of the very few gold-plated medallions flown, and logged over 94 hours in space…This medallion is from the original set that Jim and I had to keep for ourselves. Most medallions were given to our wives, children, or very close friends that played a significant role of support, either to the mission or to our families.” An attractive and uncommon gold-plated variant that once belonged to the pilot of Gemini 12.
