Masonic Medals

Welcome to Trevor Harris’s Masonic Medals Homepage, the place for all who enjoy and collect Masonic medals and jewels, and who also have an interest in Masonic history.

Trevor Harris presenting a giant cheque for £22,500 to W.Bro. Chris Caine PSGD for charity raised during his year as WM of Lodge of Ascension No. 7358 in 2009

The page will have links with several interesting sub-sections, which at present are grouped under menu:- The Lodge behind the Jewel (Lodge histories- if you have written your lodge’s history and can email it to mail@masonicmedals.net with a jpeg/pdf of a Past Master’s jewel, you can include it in this section!). The Story behind the Medal (why the medal was produced, and further background information). The Story behind the Jewel (the story of why a jewel was issued). There is a link above to the many surplus medals and jewels which are for sale which have been accumulated during research for the book- I also buy Masonic medals and jewels, however I am not a dealer and only wish to purchase scarcer items, or collections which contain them, but for these I will pay very high prices. I really do hope that you enjoy the site, and I will be pleased to hear from anyone with any suggestions or information to add.

There will also be a link to the many surplus medals and jewels which are for sale which have been accumulated during research for the book:-

Food for Thought

To realise the value of ONE YEAR, ask a student who failed a grade
To realise the value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who gave birth to a premature baby
To realise the value of ONE WEEK, ask the editor of a weekly newspaper
To realise the value of ONE DAY, ask a bride the day before her wedding
To realise the value of ONE HOUR, ask the lovers who are waiting to meet
To realise the value of ONE MINUTE, ask a person who has missed a train
To realise the value of ONE SECOND, ask a person who just avoided an accident
To realise the value of ONE MILLISECOND, ask the person who won a silver medal in the Olympics

Treasure every moment you have
Yesterday is history
Tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift, that’s why it’s called the present
