Obverse
The obverse represents the sun and the earth, with the Italian inscription:
POST TENEBRAS LVX
ANNO GEOFISICO 1961
Reverse
We believe that the Sun God is represented on the reverse but whether this is Apollo or Helios we do not know. We are not sure what else is symbolised on the medallion but there was one suggestion in the office that the circular design at the bottom is the man in the moon! It also has the inscription:
ECLISSE TOTALE DEL SOLE
DEL XV FEBBRAIO MCMLXI
ITALIA
Edge
The edge is milled.

Buying & Selling
Buyers and sellers alike may be interested to note that gold medallions like these often trade at prices close to their intrinsic metal value. While this may not be what sellers wish to hear, it should delight potential buyers.
At the time of creating this page, we had a one of these medallions in stock, and would be happy to sell it for a modest premium over their intrinsic gold content, however as with many pages of our website, this page has a dual purpose, to sell our stock, and to provide information. If you have a similar medallion, which you would like to sell, we would be pleased to hear from you.
