    Description

    Rare original United States Navy Excellence in Gunnery medal in gold. Named to “J.P. HANCOCK” in period engraving. Measures approximately 1 1/4” in diameter. The grand total weight, including medal, ribbon and pin back brooch is 16.4 grams. Not marked to gold content, but tests at 10k. There is an enameled “E” on the face. Reverse reads, “To J.P. Hancock First Division of the U.S.S. Georgia in Memory of Lt. Sargent Force U.S.N. December 3 1915.” Researchable.  The ribbon and suspension are probably replacements  since the catch is a barrel catch, and I don't think those were around in 1915.  Minor wear and storage marks. There is a little notch on the reverse of the medal at 4 o’clock (see scan). Tarnish. You are buying the material pictured.
    US shipping is .50 (1st Class mail with tracking). No international shipping. This is a hobby not a living, so I try to keep it fun, otherwise why do it. Thank you for trading with me on eBay.
