Hi all

I recently purchased a silver version of the STS 98 SFA medallion. Until this purchase I had understood that the only silver version of the SFA's was the Apollo 30th Anniversary one but clearly there are/have been others.

Does anyone know which other SFA's (if any) had silver versions issued and how many silvers were issued per version?
Many thanks

Craig

There were silver versions produced of the STS-88, STS-98 and Apollo 11 30th Anniversary MFA medallions.

I once had the exact quantities of the earlier two, but cannot find them now. From what I remember, they were extremely limited.

Congratulations on the rare find!
