Medal, for quoitingThis silver medal for quoiting was given in 1842 by William Mundell, a Dumfries baker, to the quoiters of his native parish of Caerlaverock in Perthshire. The medal is shaped like a miniature quoit - a large ring thrown in the game of quoiting. Quoiting was a game in which quoits, made of cast iron or steel and weighing 10lbs or more, were thrown at a metal pin 21 yards distant in an attempt to encircle it.
