Apollo 11 Robbins Medal Number 11!
Apollo 11 Flown MS66 NGC Sterling Silver Robbins Medallion with
Special Serial Number Eleven, Directly From The Armstrong Family
Collection™, Certified and Encapsulated by Collectibles
Authentication Guaranty.This 28mm sterling silver medal was one of 450 flown aboard Apollo 11, the first manned moon landing, July 16-24, 1969, with crewmembers Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Buzz Aldrin. The obverse depicts Collins' early and original concept for the mission insignia with the eagle carrying an olive branch in its mouth. NASA thought the sharp, open talons of the eagle looked too "warlike" and the olive branch, representing peace, was moved to the claws. This is one of, if not the only, major official items that renders the insignia as it was meant to be by the astronaut designer. The reverse has the dates of the mission, surnames of the crew, and the serial number. Included with this lot is the original plastic case with the numbered sticker on the bottom. This wonderful Gem Uncirculated example with the number of the mission as the serial number is arguably the most desirable silver Apollo 11 Robbins medal ever offered for sale. A rare opportunity for the advanced collector. This lot will include a Statement of Provenance signed by Neil Armstrong's sons, Rick and Mark.

As for Heritage's online system… Yes the interface is more complex than what we are used to with SAN but what is behind that interface is amazing for sellers and buyers alike. It is real time and for a real serious auction buyer there is nothing better in the auction industry, bar none.
