Comment

Longines-Wittnauer Inc. U.S.A. Same as the company that created the Longines Symphonette Society Medals. These are not a part of the 60 medals in that set. This set is called "Heritage of the Golden West" The images are of the mint mark and designers marks. They seem to follow the same as Symphonette medals rule of no less than 525 grains of silver.
