A silver gilt medal is a silver object that has been coated with a thin layer of gold, often created to commemorate significant historical events, achievements, or exhibitions.

These items are typically crafted from sterling silver using striking or die-casting techniques, followed by fire gilding or electroplating with gold to produce the distinctive gilt finish.

Authenticity is determined by examining metal hallmarks, edge lettering, the weight and sharpness of the strike, and the originality of the accompanying fitted presentation case.

Period medals can be displayed within glass-topped table cases, shadow boxes, or kept protected in their original presentation boxes on a desk or bookshelf.

Silver gilt should be kept away from direct sunlight, moisture, and chemical cleaners; it should only be dusted gently with a soft microfibre cloth to preserve the fragile gold layer.
