Rusty Schweickart’s flown sterling silver Apollo 12 Robbins medallion, approximately 1.25″ in diameter, with a raised design of the Apollo 12 mission insignia on the face—a 'Yankee Clipper' ship sailing over the moon's 'Ocean of Storms,' the location of the Apollo 12 landing site. The reverse is engraved with the launch date of November 14, 1969; moon landing date of November 19, 1969; and return date of November 24, 1969. The medal is serial numbered "200" and stamped below with the Robbins "Sterling" hallmark. Encapsulated and graded by NGC as "MS 66," with the label noting the provenance, "Ex. Rusty Schweickart." Accompanied by the original case and a letter of provenance from Schweickart, in part: "I hereby certify that this Apollo 12 silver Robbins medallion, serial #200, was flown aboard the Apollo 12 mission in 1969. As a member of the astronaut office, I was permitted to purchase up to two Robbins medallions from each mission."
