I don’t know much about this medallic issue except that it purports to have an embedded piece of NW 869 Chondrite Meteorite embedded in the face of the medal. NW 869 was discovered in the Sahara Desert in 2000, weighed about four tons and was instrumental in being the first meteorite ever embedded in a legal tender coin, a two ounce Ten Dollar silver coin issued by authority of the government of Liberia in 2004.
