Delighted my Willie Maley testimonial trophy arrived today Spent my children's inheritance on it !😱
It's now in the cabinet next to my mini Coronation Cup
Hard to believe they are the same age as me !
@thecelticmedal Obviously not a Celtic one but great connection to Celtic beating them in the Final The guy selling it didn't know the football connection or that it was Silver
latest addition to my collection
Mini Coronation Cup which was given to the players after the 1953 Final at Hampden with around 120,000 fans at the game
Celtic beat a very good Hibs 2-0 Beating Arsenal and Manchester United in the previous rounds Runners up engraved on rear
@jamiebhoy2009@CelticFC@celticparkevent@CelticStarMag@Boola_vogue Do you know what happened with the Empire Exhibition trophy and the Coronation Cup one ? I noticed they had £4000 to 6000 estimate but I can't find them on the auction results Where they withdrawn?
How lucky am I ☘️ “The Patsy Gallacher Cup Final” a goal down, the great man scores a equaliser etched in the mind of every Celtic fan. With only minutes to go John Jean McFarlane the recipient of this medal whips the ball in for McGrory to score the winner with a flying header.
@thecelticmedal The photo you commented on It's not the one that was for sale yesterday It's one I got last month and as I said its got Runners Up engraved on the back so it would have been given to a Hibs player ( unknown ) after the final in 1953 Unfortunately there is no player on the top
@thecelticmedal Unless there were 2 this is the trophy which Mctears auction house sold today
I wasn't at the auction and only have the photo and written details on it Perhaps the photo is cropped
Morning all, Celtic's first game in Scotland as European Champions in 1967 was against FA Cup winners Spurs. 91,708 fans watched an exciting 3-3 draw as both sides played an attacking game from the start. 1/2
Have quite a few of them the silver gilt one (looks like gold if not polished) being the most difficult to find, being the most desirable and the most expensive at the time.
Pullman press sold them.
