      That is an original medal that Art Shuttleworth from Toronto Ontario won. Art was quite involved in the local motorcycle scene in the early days. He was the Waverley, PEM and Jefferson dealer in Toronto in 1911-1914. He raced a Jefferson single. I have some of his trophies, photos, etc from those days.

          There are lots of medals/trophies, awards, in many configurations, however rarely are they engraved. That is a nice one.
