American Bowling Congress Medals Value?

[AuctionAddict83]

Hello Everyone,

I purchased these badges at an estate auction. I haven't been able to find anything similar yet onlinw. Nothing on ebay sold history either. Any idea what they are worth or any other info on them would be appreciated?

#1
Chicago 1912- nothing on the back so no photo taken

#2
Toledo 1916- photo of front and back

Who knows? The best way to find a value there is to find some bowling historians or collectors and see what they would pay. General medal collectors might have a interest too. My guess, is 20-25 bucks each. Just a guess. They look like participation pieces rather than awards.

Thanks for the info...they will probably just end up on Ebay and I guess will see if there is any interest out there for them.

Hello:

I have been collecting bowling medals for quite some time... while I don't fancy myself an expert.. I can give you an opinion on the values from a collectors point of view.. they run about 25-50 each... I have bought a couple of them I have 2 1912's one that is badly worn no top cost me $2 on ebay... the other is the fob style meaning it has the black material cost me 28. I dont have the metal top like yours yet but would pay 45 just to have the example in my collection... the 1916 I have 1 it cost me 40 in about the same condition that you have. Hope this helps.
