Participation medal issued for the Stockholm 1912 Olympics. Pewter, 51 mm, 46 gm, by Bertram Mackennal/Erik Lindberg. The front features a raised quadriga with a charioteer and judge, preparing to present an athlete with the palm of victory; the reverse bears Zeus seated on an Ionic column in relief, holding a small figure of the goddess Nike, with the city of Stockholm in the background and raised lettering along the top. Accompanied by the scarce original paper box, which has an inexpertly tape-repaired lid and one split corner.
