1908 Women’s Amateur Championship Robbins Co. Stamping Die (1908)
This original, antique stamping die was recently discovered in a Maryland badge manufacturing company warehouse where it was stored for over a century since it was used to produce the 1908 WOMENS AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIP GOLF COMPETITION medal or badge. The tournament was held at the Chevy Chase Club in Maryland. The dimensions are approximately 2” square x 2 ¼” high. The die weighs approximately 2 lb 11 oz and is Fine condition with excellent engraved pattern details but there is pitting on the sides and bottom. A single hardened steel die could be used to produce thousands of stampings so it is likely that this die is unique. The detailed engraving displays the badge design in reverse with the date 1908. Please note that the close up photo has been reversed to show how the completed item would present.
