    It`s U C V, and my guess would be United Confederate Veteran. Any other ideas?

    That's a great looking Medal. It appears to be in really nice shape too. I occasionally find relics like that. More exciting than Silver coins.
    I love items with history. Great job.

    Thanks Don. I just noticed your badge on the banner. Know I`m wondering if the top half of mine could have been around too.
