Panama, GOP and Theodore Roosevelt base-metal watch fob plus "Coins of Panama" postcard, early 1900s, ex-Richard Stuart. 3-1/2" x 5-1/2" (postcard), 5-7/8" x 1-1/4" (medal); 39.71 grams total. The fully complete watch fob features, from top to bottom on both sides, an elephant with a GOP banner, the American flag with "TRADE FOLLOWS THE FLAG," "PROTECTION PROSPERITY AND PANAMA," ocean waves with "ATLANTIC PACIFIC," and a rather crude depiction of Theodore Roosevelt, all with slight wear. The lightly circulated postcard features embossed designs of circulating Panama coins, a short message to a Edna Lovett in Texarkana, Texas, and a Panama 1 centesimo stamp with a Panama Canal Zone cancellation. Pedigreed to the Richard Stuart collection.
