| Acccording to the
Director of the FAO Money & Medal Program: There are basically 7 types of medals issued by FAO: 1) Ceres Medals, 2) Agricola Medals, 3) World Food Day Medals, 4) Project Medals, 5) Special event Medals; 6) Calendar Medals; 7) Service medals - Not for sale Medal Pages: A. Ceres (SIX pages - Leatherette FIVE 63 mm medals per page)
Ceres & Agricola - 1976 - 1978 - Red Leatherette holders - Two sets of six types per page Ceres & Agricola 1976-1977 Ceres 1978. Additional Information. Format consisted of 12 medals per page: -SIX 50 mm silver + SIX 22 mm Aluminum to show the reverse Some of these medals have dates and/or serial numbers on the edge Please contact me if you have any information to add: - pieces I haven't listed.; - serial numbers (check the edge). ** I have labeled with an asterisk the several of the silver medals in my collection. While I may be interested to purchase the medals I don't have, I have found that eBAY seems to be the best way to decide what is the "current" fair price. |
