A grouping of two antique Metropolitan Life Insurance Company Faithful Service medals in Sterling silver. The button breast medal is unsigned, sterling, and the pin itself has broken (probably where it would have been signed). The Breast Medal with the purple velvet hanger shows considerable wear. Someone wore this often and from the looks of the medal, rubbed it often. This medal is made by Tiffany and Company and would date to John C Moore period probably circa 1910 time frame. I would venture both to actually be from the Edwardian time period.
