Description
Ex. Buzz Aldrin
Apollo 9 Flown MS63 NGC Silver Robbins Medallion, Serial Number
269, Originally from the Personal Collection of Moonwalker Buzz
Aldrin, with Letter of Authenticity. This 25mm sterling silver
medal was one of 350 flown aboard Apollo 9, March 3-13, 1969, in
the first space test of the complete Apollo spacecraft that
included the third piece of Apollo hardware- the lunar module. Its
three-man crew consisted of Jim McDivitt, Dave Scott, and Rusty
Schweickart. The obverse is not quite true to the mission insignia
as the lettering around the outside is left out. It does feature a
Saturn V rocket with the letters "USA" on it. To its right, an
Apollo CSM is shown next to a LM; the CSM is trailing rocket fire
in a circle around the Roman numerals "IX". The reverse features
the dates of the mission, names of the crew, the serial number, and
the sterling and Robbins hallmarks. This medal was gifted by Aldrin
to his sister Fay Ann during the Apollo mission era. A Letter of
Authenticity signed by Mrs. Potter's son (the executor of her
estate) will accompany this lot.
