Discovered in an estate sale in Richmond, Va. This very rare medal was awarded by The Army & Navy Cub to Colonel Walter Metcalf, an officer in World War I. I’ve been unable to find any other example of a medal ever awarded by The Army & Navy Club. The relief on the medallion depicts two World War I soldiers in Army and Navy uniforms and is dedicated “to General Officers and Flag Officers” “1920″. The medal has been kept in very good condition, as shown. The Army & Navy Club was founded in 1885 as an exclusive, private club in the heart of the nation’s capital. It was established as a meeting place for military officers to share their stories, ideas and experiences with each other, and over the years, it has expanded, continuing to be very exclusive and prestigious. Today the Army and Navy Club is a Five Star Platinum Club that counts among its members some of America’s top Admirals and Generals, members of Congress and public servants. The medal was designed and made by the firm of Dieges & Clust, founded in 1898 in New York. Dieges & Clust is known for high quality and fine design and the company produced many medals including New York’s Spanish-American War Medal, the 1904 Olympic Medal, and the Medal of Honour. They also made baseball’s first ever Most Valuable Player Award and the first ever Heisman Trophy as well as numerous other sports related rings, awards and trophies.
