Gold backed medallion features an albumen portrait w/moderate surface wear. Gold on hanger and encasing portrait tests to 14K gold.

Flanking badge on card is text speaking to positions of McKinley and Bryan respectively. While we've encountered a similar brass badge, this is the only 14K gold example known to us and was likely produced in extremely limited quantities.
