QUERY: PHILADELPHIA EXPO MEDAL OF HONOR

Web site visitor Amy Rose Ribbon writes:

I've been trying to research a medal I've received and I've hit a wall, I see it is similar to the "Award Medal" from the exposition, but I have yet to find a Medal If Honor on a ribbon. I'm hoping that you may have more knowledge than I. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
