Stolen Medal

[wlewisiii]

Not likely to show up in the UK, but just in case... 

I have an acquaintance who's father was awarded this medal for his work in creating the Clad Metal system used to replace Silver in US Coins (dime, quarter, half dollar and dollar). It went missing from a drawer in his apartment shortly before he died in December. If by any chance you see it, please let me know.

Thank you.

It might help to transcribe the " John Price Wetherill Medal 1925 " lettering and the metal content and weight, so that it readily gets flagged in searche

That's a shame as this medal was awarded to significant scientists and inventors. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Price_Wetherill_Medal#:~:text=The John Price Wetherill Medal,was last awarded in 1997.

I believe it is a plated bronze medal with the recipient's name and year engraved on the reverse. Hence, the name and date is necessary to identify it.
