This particular Token/Medal celebrates the Winners of the 1972 Centenary FA Cup Final "Leeds United". It is part of a 30 token/medal collection celebrating all the previous winners of the FA Cup. This token/medal was a different size and composition to the other ones in the set.

This was the Folder to display all of the tokens/medals.


The rest of the 'Winners' tokens/medals to commemorate the first hundred years were issued by ESSO in 1972.
