I've been purchasing some $50 slug facsimilies (Irvine & Jachens ones made before 1950) after learning about them from the nice 2008 electronic references written by Tom Jankovsky. Many of these medals are quite rare. I would strongly suggest trying to purchase NGC certified ones. There are fake modern ones, and the Jankovsky's reference describes ones made a fakes and only worth $10 at most.
