Two participation medals from the Stockholm 1912 Olympics. Both pewter, 51 mm, 42 gm and 47 gm, by Bertram Mackennal/Erik Lindberg. The fronts feature a raised quadriga with a charioteer and judge, preparing to present an athlete with the palm of victory; the reverse of each 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. One medal bears noticeable tarnishing and a couple of dings to the upper rim.
