Moose played for the Austin Packers before signing with the Yankees, and is sort of a legend there--about 50 miles from where I grew up. Austin is the home of Hormel (faintly indicated on back of premium), and boasts the Spam Museum if you are ever in the neighborhood.

1972 Roberto Clemente US Mint National Commemorative Medal. 3" in diameter and made of bronze. Has some weight to it!

They made 2000 of these. 1950 were numbered (look at the edge of the medal) and 50 unnumbered. They also made 2 small versions a bronze one and a Gold plated one (both much harder to find than the large one). Nice pickup.
