This has been gifted to me by a good beekeeping buddy, a medal awarded 118 years ago to a T. W. Ringer for "display of bee product".
It was awarded at the Crystal Palace, Surrey, which I would assume was in England?
More history of this medal is unknown but I assume T. W. Ringer himself, or one of his family came to NZ and brought it with them, anyone know anything about this gentleman?
