JACOB WALLENBERG,
1967 HONORARY
NOBEL PRIZE MEDAL

A Nobel Prize medal awarded to Jacob Wallenberg in 1967 by The Nobel Foundation. Wallenberg was awarded an honorary Nobel medal. Note that he wasn't a Nobel laureate but a very prominent businessman who worked with Nobel. This Nobel Medal is one-of-a-kind and extremely rare and is to be regarded as an honorary prize medal.

The medal, the front of which is identical to the prize medals, has the following text on the back: "Institutum Nobelianum Crato Amino; Peritia Prudentia Providentia; Jacob Wallenberg; 1951-". The medal's box contains the text "Jacob Wallenberg; 27/9 1967; From the Nobel Foundation". This is most likely the very first honorary medal of this kind ever offered for sale.

Size: Approximately 2.6 inches / 66 mm in diameter (medal).

Condition: Very good condition; some minor scratches.

Provenance: Private collection, Sweden. Letter of Authenticity from Alexander Bitar History.
