For the life of me, I can't see the allure of medallions. Baffles me why anyone would want those fugly, commemorative coin looking discs inlet into their nice stags or ivories.....Hell, for THAT matter, even on wood or plastic.
might as well engrave advertising billboards all over them, baby.... I feel the same.

Hunts, those “ivory” grips look really nice. I have a Colt New Frontier that could use a little dressing up. Who makes them?

My only pair of Sambar stags are on a 1911. I've had them over 20 years. Paid 75$ for them.

This '48 Government Model belongs to my Mother. She inherited it from my Uncle. Pretty sure these are Sambars.

Are those factory stag grips? Can't answer that as the gun was a hand-me-down from my Dad. He bought it new in the 1950s. I have the black grips, also.

I like the looks of stag, but for me, too much bark doesn't look good.
