    Picked up a couple of religious medallions yesterday
    I think the St Hubert medallion is silver but not confirmed with XRF
    The Gold Mary and Jesus Medallion is 18ct gold confirmed with XRF

    I didn't want to get into medals or medallions but I seem to be picking up a few here and there, mostly issues from coin clubs and as a spin off of my research into the Chinese Junk "Keying".

    Do you just keep them in a box?

    I have seen a few collector/display albums but I don't have enough to warrant purchasing one.

    I keep mine in a box - too much variety in terms of shape and weight for it to go nicely in an album.. i never intended in getting into numismatics either (let alone this stuff) but its funny what a little research can do to your mind set.. once you get a taste for interesting items from the past.. its hard to give it up.
