Description

This 76mm bronze medal produced in 2010 by Medallic Art Company of Dayton, Nevada commemorates the Pilgrims of Great Britain, celebrating the historical and cultural connections between Britain and America that trace back to the Pilgrims' voyage on the Mayflower in 1620. The "Dayton, NV" location is significant, documenting Medallic Art Company's final relocation after leaving New York City for Danbury, Connecticut, and then moving to Nevada. By 2010, MACO was in its final years of operation, and this medal represents one of the later productions from America's longest-operating private medal manufacturer. The 76mm large format provides an impressive canvas for designs exploring the Pilgrim heritage and the transatlantic bond between Britain and America. The Pilgrims of Great Britain organization promotes awareness of the Pilgrim story and maintains connections between communities in England and America associated with the Pilgrim movement. This medal bridges nearly four centuries of Anglo-American history while also documenting the final chapter of Medallic Art Company's own remarkable 107-year journey.
