The Centenary Medallion
100 uniquely numbered Centenary of Wangi Medallions were produced as a major fundraiser for the event.
The auctioning of the #1 medallion at the Dinner Gala and Dance will be exciting!
And the #100 medallion will be included in the time capsule to be placed at Dobell House.

The Centenary Medallion is a high quality medal specifically created for the Wangi Centenary. The front features a relief of Wangi Peninsula and the reverse a relief of Dobell House. Each medallion is numbered and only 100 medals have been struck – with no opportunity to strike more! Each medal is presented in it’s own high quality velvet jewellery case.

​There are souvenir stickers available for those that wish to show their support for the event. Souvenir stickers are $3 each, with all proceeds going towards funding this event.

Available for purchase at the following locations:
  • Wangi Pharmacy
  • Wangi Hotel
  • Vita Restaurant
  • Deck Cafe
  • ​Wangi Hardware
