Description

Flown sterling silver Apollo 8 Robbins medallion with later gold gilding and addition of a jump ring for inclusion on the charm bracelet of Louise Randall, the wife of Apollo 14 LMP Edgar Mitchell, measuring approximately 1.5˝ x 1.25˝, featuring a raised design of the mission insignia on the face—an "8" looping around the Earth and Moon, reflecting both the mission number and the circumlunar nature of the mission. The reverse is engraved with the mission dates, "Dec. 21–27, 1968," and serial number, "225." Stamped below with the Robbins "Sterling" hallmark. Encapsulated and graded by NGC as "AU Details," with the label noting the provenance, "Ex. Edgar Mitchell." Accompanied by a certificate depicting the complete charm bracelet, which carried flown medallions from eleven Gemini and Apollo missions.
