Description: Number #1 of 50 series from the Franklin Mint Roberts Birds (named after famous sculptor Gilroy Roberts) was one of the Franklin Mint's most popular issues, and also most unusual. The medals were issued one at a time, rather than in sets, although each Series of 5 was priced at a discount. Ten series of 5 medals were issued, called Series I through X (Series I is medals 1-5, Series II is medals 6-10, etc.). The mintage of each individual medal - even within a series - is different; the numbers given in the table below are approximate averages for the series. Each individual medal came in a plastic capsule, but no other packaging. Since the set became very popular, the Franklin Mint later offered a variety of packaging options, including individual frames, frames for a set of 5, and albums that would hold multiple frames. Most of these medals are seen as loose medals, individually or in small groups, and some are seen as a Series, or multiple Series. I can't recall ever seeing a complete set of all 50 medals for sale, so if you want to collect a complete set of these, it may be difficult.
