One of our favorite golf stories is about Francis Ouimet using a 10 year old caddie named Eddie Lowery in the most important golf tournament in American history. Ouimet’s victory alongside the diminutive Lowery changed the game of golf forever. More than just sharing a moment in history, Ouimet and Lowery formed a lifelong friendship. Lowery himself became an accomplished golfer, as well as a multi-millionaire businessman. Besides some Eddie Lowery autographs that surface from time to time, the collecting market contains very few pieces of Eddie Lowery golf memorabilia.  

This is Eddie Lowery's Low Scorer medal from the qualifying rounds of the 1961 US Senior Amateur, which was held in San Francisco. 1 3/8" diameter.
