Gold certificates, a trophy and medals in presentation cases — Both 2019 gold certificates, the trophy, and nine medals.

Preview note, not page copy. Everything in oxblood is verified off their own certificates and plaques. Every TBD is waiting on Jonathan. The four named cuts at the bottom come from their current site, which calls them award winners without ever saying which award — so the seal is there but the detail line is honest. Once he sends the list, each TBD is a one-line swap.
