This World Championship gold medal from the 1987 tournament in Austria was presented to Swedish defenseman Lars Karlsson. Sweden claimed gold by pounding Canada 9-0 in its last of three final round games to easily beat out the U.S.S.R. by virtue of their higher goal differential after both teams finished with one win and two ties. Gold medal measures a shade over 2 5/8" in diameter with "1987" on the clasp for the slightly frayed two-tone original ribbon. A couple of marks to note on the face, including a ding below the two skaters, and a bit of discoloration on the edge are the only flaws to note. Comes with a Classic Auctions LOA.
