1860 - 1935 Pony Express Diamond Jubilee OTMA Medal 4GLE

Description: DESCRIPTION 1860 - 1935 Pony Express Diamond Jubilee OTMA Medal 4GLE Up for sale is a medal produced by the New Jersey firm of Whitehead and Hoag of the Oregon Trail Memorial Association (OTMA). The medal was produced in 1947 but bears the dates 1860 - 1935 and was intended to celebrate the 75 year anniversary (diamond jubilee) of the Pony Express service. The obverse shows a pony and rider. The rider carries the mail and is armed with his trusty six-shooter. The reverse shows a relay station where a tired pony was allowed to rest up and the cargo was carried onward by a new rider and a rested pony. The medal is known as a so-called half dollar because its size and theme are similar to U.S. commemorative half dollar coins produced in that era.

ABOUT US Low Country Coins was established in 2006 by Bill, while on active duty in the U.S. Navy (now retired from active duty).
