The reverse of the "gold" medal.

OK, maybe I just confuse easily, or maybe it is because it has to do with sports (which I have never quite understood), but I am finding some of these sports badges hard to sort out.

I have found what I think are (at least) three series of the track and field medals (W27a-W29).

These "feel" to be the oldest. Large (39 mm) with a mirror reverse. The runner is running to the (politically incorrect?) right. In gold (red "ribbon"), silver (blue "ribbon"), and bronze (green "ribbon").

Please, everyone. Let us strive to play well with others. Asking questions politely and respectfully and answering them in the same tone should be the trademark of this forum. We are not like other fora, where nastiness seems to be valued. We need to be sensitive that language problems may get in the way, as not all here are native speakers of English, but we should still always try to live up to out forum name: Gentleman.

Please.
