CVC & Collectables presents the West Cumberland Agricultural Society Prize Medal, an undated gilt bronze award medal certified NGC MS 63. A charming survivor of Britain’s agricultural-show era, it features a pastoral farm scene and a blank (uninscribed) reverse—exactly as issued for prize engraving—making this example especially desirable in mint state.
