COMMEMORATIVE MEDALS, Medals by Subject, Sport, Olympic Games, Sweden, Stockholm 1912, Gold Winner’s Medal, awarded to Nils August Domingo Adlercreutz, for the Equestrian Team Eventing (Military), by Bertram Mackennal (obverse) and Erik Lindberg (reverse), a naked athlete stands with palm branch, crowned by two diaphonous classical figures, rev a herald, trumpet in hand, wearing tabard and by raised bust of Ling, reads a declaration, OLYMPISKA SPELEN STOCKHOLM 1912, 33.3mm, 26.53g. Very fine with usual signs of handling, extremely rare, only 90 specimens awarded. provenance: Nils August Domingo Adlercreutz (1866-1955) then through family, by descent Equestrian events made their first official appearance in a modern Olympics at the Stockholm Games. Nils Adlercreutz had a successful Olympics as indeed did the Swedish equestrian team, which won the gold for the Team Eventing – this medal, beating Germany (silver) and the USA (bronze). Individually in the same event Adlercreutz (and Atout) came fourth. He also competed (on Ilex) in the individual jumping event, coming sixth. It was expected that the competitors in these events would be military personnel as they would have had the cavalry experience and training. The medal’s obverse is adapted from the 1908 London medal (the details of those Games being removed from the plinths on which the female figures sit). Whilst it still bears the signature of Vaughton & Sons (Birmingham), records indicate that the medals were struck by C C Sporrong & Co. Records also state that in team events, such as this, winners received gilt-silver medals, but the Adlercreutz medal is solid gold. The Stockholm Olympics were the last games in which true gold medals were awarded for team event winners.

Cilicia, Kelenderis AR Stater. Circa 450-400 BC. Nude ephebe left, holding whip and dismounting from horse at the gallop in a calpe or anadates race, ? below / KE?E, goat crouching left, head to right. SNG Levante 19; SNG von Aulock 5623; SNG France 51. 10.88g, 22mm, 12h. Extremely Fine. Very well preserved for the type. The anabates or calpe (‘dismounter’) race was a late introduction to the Olympics, in which the rider dismounted for the last stretch and ran beside the horse. Its origin was probably a military exercise since speed and agility were essential for a horseman in battle, and it is still included in modern gymkhanas (For elucidation, cf. S. Swaddling, The Ancient Olympic Games, London 2004, p. 89).
