1926 U.S. Women's Amateur Contestant Medal

        Presented here is an original contestant's medal from the 1926 U.S. Women's Amateur. This contestant's medal is in phenomenal condition, and still contains the original celluloid #6 clipped on back, which means it was issued to player #6 at the 1926 U.S. Women's Amateur. Helen Stetson was the victory this year. Surely, a finer example of this rare contestant's badge does not likely exist.

        UPDATE: The 2006 GilChrist's Guide to Golf Collectibles lists this medal at $1,250, and that likely assumes that the medal would not actually come with the original celluloid piece still attached.
