The medal is serial numbered "95" and includes its original matching case, with a label on the bottom annotated in Bean's hand, "Apollo 12, Silver, #95, Flown." Condition is mint state.

Accompanied by a handwritten and flight-certified letter of authenticity from Bean, in full: "I hereby warrant and certify the Apollo 12 silver Robbins Medal, serial number #95, was flown with me aboard Yankee Clipper on the Apollo 12 mission, November 14-24, 1969. It has been a part of my personal collection of space mementoes since.
