1914 Pinehurst North & South Amateur Sterling Silver Runner-Up Medal
The North & South Amateur has long been viewed as one of the best events for that player status in golf with an illustrious list of victors including Walter Travis, Francis Ouimet, Chick Evans, Jack Nicklaus and more. Here is an early medal for the competition from 1914 with the endless eye appeal that collectors have come to expect from the pre-WWI Pinehurst prizes - this just months prior to the start. The highly intricate, time-period crest of Pinehurst Golf Club presents in excellent condition on the front along with Pinehurst Country Club, Pinehurst NC also in shallow relief. The reverse border of this medal is outlined by a ribbon-tied harebell wreath. Carries STERLING marking on bottom edge, as depicted in the accompanying lot photos. Professional hand-engraved inscription on back reads as follows: North & South Amateur Championship - Runner Up 5th Division - Won By - JE Mountain - April 4, 1914. 22 grams. From the current home of the World Golf Hall of Fame, this 112 year old medal composed of sterling silver exudes class while telling the story of golf's past and it's revered amateur ranks.
