Description

Shannon Lucid's flown sterling silver STS-76 Robbins medallion, approximately 1.5˝ in diameter, featuring a raised design of the mission insignia on the face. The reverse is engraved with the launch date, "March 22, 1996," and landing date and location, "March 31, 1996, RW 22, EDW AFB, CA." The medal is serial numbered "43F" and stamped with the Robbins hallmark on the edge. Condition is mint state. Complete with its original small plastic case with stiff blue liner, with matching "43F" label. Accompanied by a letter of provenance signed by Lucid. STS-76 saw the Space Shuttle Atlantis dock with the Russian space station Mir, delivering astronaut Shannon Lucid to the orbital laboratory; she would return to Earth six months later on STS-79. A scarce example, as one of just 57 flown.
