Prized Birds


I bought some antique medals several years back on a trip to Edinburgh, and have since been collecting them.  They make great pendants, and are usually engraved with the name of the winner, the date, and whatever the competition was.  I don't know what these medals were for, as the ebay listing doesn't show the backside.  Prettiest bird?  Homeliest Pigeon?  They're pretty pricey these days -- I got my old ones for 15 quid, a far cry from the $200+ these are asking.  Maybe if there was one with a friendly owl on it, I'd be willing to cough up that much.
