1949 Pine Valley Golf Club Benjamin Franklin Medal
Located in New Jersey, Pine Valley was founded by a group of amateur golfers and designed by one in particular- George Crump. Crump was familiar with the area and had grand ideas while designing his first and only golf course, such as one should use every club in his bag while playing the course, consecutive holes shouldn't play in the same direction, etc. Sadly Crump died in 1918 before finishing his dream of a complex and intriguing course. Pine Valley to this day is perennially one of the top courses in the country. Offered here for bidders is the 1949 Benjamin Franklin medal from Pine Valley Golf Club. It comes in great condition and is highly presentable. The medal is 3" in diameter, 1/8" tall, and weighs 1/2 lb.
