Edgar Mitchell's historic flown sterling silver Apollo 11 Robbins Medallion, approximately 1.25˝ in diameter, with a raised design of the iconic Apollo 11 mission insignia on the face—a bald eagle landing on the cratered lunar surface, clutching olive branches of peace in its talons, with Earth above in the distance. The reverse is encircled by the last names of astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins, and engraved with the launch date ("July 16, 1969"), moon landing date ("July 20, 1969"), and return date ("July 24, 1969"). The medallion is serial numbered "413” and includes its original matching case. Condition is mint state, with minor tarnishing. A fantastic example of this highly sought Robbins medallion, originating from the collection of a moonwalker.
Accompanied by a letter of authenticity from Karlyn Mitchell, the daughter of Edgar Mitchell.
