Fobs like this one were originally used as decorations on a gentleman's watch chain and later went on to become popular as award medals and are highly sought after by a great number of collectors today.

It's approximately 1 1/2" long including the bail. It's approximately 7/8" at the widest point.
It's a bit worn and in fair to good condition with no issues other than normal signs of wear and use which includes small surface scratches to the silver.
We never clean or polish our old silver jewelry as most collectors prefer an undisturbed patina and it's a bit dirty with a soft, mellow patina.
