Description

Maryland passed over commerce and industry on its 1915 exposition medal and honored instead two native sons whose songs made the state known. On the reverse, within a laurel wreath, twin circles hold busts of James Ryder Randall above and Francis Scott Key below, with "Maryland My Maryland" around the top and "Star-Spangled Banner" around the bottom. The obverse is the state seal, with "Maryland at Panama Pacific International Exposition 1915" around it, the microscopic "M C P P I Ex 1915" below the seal and the Whitehead & Hoag mark, "W. & H. Co." and "Newark, N. J.," near the border. Maryland distributed the medal on Maryland Day to officials and others. HK-407 is bronze, 38 mm; HK-407a is silver-plated bronze.
