Comments

This was made on a erased silver coin, hand engraved , most possible a 20 Cents 1911-1942 N# 25414 Photo

 

It is worth noting that the medal, awarded by the Municipal Council, now represented by the Mayor's Office of Fusagasugá, featured on its obverse the image of a bull accompanied by the phrase "First Place," while on the reverse was the inscription "Fusagasugá Fair 1944." This piece stands as a lasting testament to the tradition and excellence of that era.
