I haven't been able to get out to yard sales much this year, but I did get to a few this weekend. Not much to show for it, but I picked up this bronze medal from the 1972 Olympics in Munich. I don't think this was a medal awarded to an athlete, but I'm not sure what it actually is. Searching online, I was able to find just 2 examples for sale on Ebay, priced between $55 and $65. The bail on mine is possibly gold, I haven't tested it yet. The bag had a "Make offer" sticker, so I offered $1, and she accepted! The 1972 Olympics are notorious because of the terrorist killing of the some of the israeli athletes: https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/massacre-begins-at-munich-olympics
Update: The hanging loop or bail thing tests 14K gold!
