This is one that you don't see everyday! This is a GAR Delegate Badge for the 30th National Encampment that was held in Saint Paul, Minnesota in 1896. The top brass medal shows a farming scene in a circle atop bundles of wheat, with St Paul's motto "Le Toile Du Nord" above. Suspended from that is the dark chocolate brown Saint Paul 1896 Delegate's medal. Below that is suspended the brass GAR medal with an eagle and enameled representation of the American flag. At the bottom is a chocolate brown metal star with a portrait in the center. On the back it is marked "Presented by the Citizen's Committee St. Paul 1896. It measures 4-1/4th inches long overall, and is 2 inches wide across the top brass medal. The manufacturer's mark and "Pat apl'd for". Four-piece bronze and gilt hanger in very good condition. This pattern never had an attached ribbon, so it is complete. A fine medal!
