Apollo 7 Flown Robbins Medallion - From the Personal Collection of William E. Thornton
Flown sterling silver Apollo 7 Robbins medallion, measuring approximately 1.25˝ x 1˝, featuring a raised design of the mission insignia on the face—a capsule orbiting Earth, the mission number, and the last names of crew members Wally Schirra, Donn Eisele, and Walt Cunningham. The reverse is engraved with the mission's launch date, “Oct. 11, 1968," and serial number, “156.” A pin-and-hook clasp has been soldered to the back, and the reverse exhibits moderate tarnishing. Includes its original matching case, with typical deteriorating foam.
