Ltd., 1888', suspended from five bars detailing the teams awards from the season, with pin clip clasp to the reverse, in nine carat gold, 39mm high overall Note: Considered Celtic's annus mirabilis, the 1966/67 season will forever go down as the finest in the club’s history. In this famously successful season, the team reigned victorious in every competition they entered: the Glasgow Cup, the Scottish League Cup, the Scottish Cup, the Scottish League and of course, the European Cup. In the process, the Scottish side scored a world record total of 196 goals across all competitions. Celtic legend Stevie Chalmers (1935 – 2019) was an integral part of this team. The first in a season of victories, Celtic won the Scottish League Cup on 29 October 1966. The final was contested between Celtic and their Old Firm rivals, Rangers, for a third consecutive season. Celtic won 1-0 to lift the cup at Hampden Park, with Bobby Lennox scoring the only goal. Celtic won the Glasgow Cup one week later on 7 November 1966 at Celtic Park. Celtic had already dispatched their Old Firm rivals in the first round with an emphatic 4-0 victory at Ibrox. This was the first of three 4-0 victories on the road to the trophy, defeating Queen’s Park and then Partick in the final, Chalmers scoring the opener. They then went on to win the Scottish Cup on 29 April 1967. After what had been a fairly straightforward route, Celtic defeated Aberdeen 2-0 at Hampden in the final. This match achieved the record attendance of the season for Celtic F.C., with a turnout of over 126,000 fans. Celtic would then go on to clinch the Scottish First Division on 6 May 1967, becoming the reigning champions for a second season running. Despite Celtic’s resounding successes across other competitions (having even remained undefeated in the league bar two matches), this would go down to the wire, with them having gone toe to toe with their city rivals, Rangers F.C. It wasn’t until the penultimate game of the season that Celtic would emerge victorious, with the invaluable point secured from a 2-2 draw at Ibrox ensuring they could no longer be caught. Later in May, Celtic emerged the first British club to win the European Cup, doing so ‘in the heat of Lisbon’ on 25 May 1967. It was the first time Celtic had qualified for the tournament, the road to Lisbon starting with comfortable victories against F.C. Zurich (5-0 agg.) and Nantes (6-2 agg.). The quarter final in March was a more fiercely contested affair, with Celtic facing the Yugoslavian champions Vojvodina. Celtic lost the first leg away in Novi Sad (1-0), with the return leg in Glasgow being a similar affair, Vojvodina defending resolutely throughout. Celtic would level the tie on aggregate with a second half goal from Chalmers, and went on to emerge victorious when Captain Billy McNeill headed in a goal in the final minutes of the game. The first leg of the semi-finals against Czechoslovakian side Dukla Prague saw Celtic win 3-1. For the second leg, manager Jock Stein instructed the squad to play in a defensive formation, this differing from their usual attacking style. These tactics worked well for the side, securing a 0-0 draw to progress to the final. The final of the European Cup was contested at the Estadio Nacional in Lisbon. Things didn’t start out to plan for the Celts, as they conceded a penalty kick after Jim Craig brought down Renato Cappellini in the box within seven minutes of the game. After converting the spot kick, the Italians would revert to their typical defensive formation, which saw them play eleven men behind the ball. This was the antithesis of Celtic’s forward playing style, who then ‘went out to attack’. Of their thirty-nine shots, twenty were saved and nineteen were off target. On the 63rd minute, their perseverance would prove fruitful when Tommy Gemmell fired home for an equaliser. With minutes left to spare, the ball fell again to Gemmell who would play on Bobby Murdoch whose long range effort was resolutely fired home by Stevie Chalmers, the most important goal in the history of the club. This win cemented the legendary status of the Celtic side, the Lisbon Lions, in British footballing history. Up until this point, every winner of the European Cup since its inception in 1955 had been either Spanish, Portuguese or Italian. Upon their return to Glasgow, the Lisbon Lions were each presented with a unique medal commemorating the season’s successes. Together, the six represent the most significant Celtic F.C. medal group ever to come at auction, and one of the most significant in footballing history. The European Cup Medals of fellow footballing legends have achieved impressive auction results in the past. In 2010, George Best's single European Cup winner's medal from 1968 sold at auction for £156,000. In 2015, Kenny Dalglish reportedly sold his 1984 European Cup winner's medal for £165,000.
