Offered here is Jesse Guilford's 1921 Massachusetts Amateur winner’s gold medal. Guilford and his friend Francis Ouimet dominated Massachusetts Amateur golf in the 1910s-20s. In fact, from 1913 to 1925, the Massachusetts Amateur was won by Ouimet or Guilford in every year but two. 

 

This is Guilford's gold medal from his 1921 Mass Am victory at Worcester Country Club. Jesse Guilford won this title in July 1921, and would win the US Amateur just two months later. 1 1/2" diameter. 46.3 grams of 18k gold. Made by Tiffany & Co.
