This is a perfect medallion, probably 100 years old. Every part is intact, clean, and shiny. The medallion itself is numbered 2821. It was owned by a member of the National Society of New England Women, who was also a member of the DAR. The National Society of New England Women began in 1895 in New York City. The members are descended from New Englanders residing in the New England Colonies prior to 1789. These women engage in Patriotic, civic and charitable work. The insignia is interesting and symbolic. " The six crests of our New England States are equally spread on a golden circle. Massachusetts is represented by the figure of Indian Chief, Massasoit, Rhode Island, the anchor, Connecticut, three intertwined grapevines; Maine, the pine tree; New Hampshire, the ship; and Vermont, the stag's head. The stalk of maize signifies remembrance of the Colony saved from starvation by this Indian man in the wilderness.
