The medal consits of one ounce of pure Welsh gold mined
at Gwynfydd in Meirionethshire. It was designed and created
by the goldsmith Rhiannon of Tregaron. The eisteddfod
has presented three such medals - two from the Clogau
goldmines were presented in 1985 and 1986 to the conductors
of the winning Mixed and Cerdd Dant choirs respectively.
In 1985 the winner was Wil Morus Jones conductor of Cor
Godre'r Garth, and in 1986 the medal went to Alwena Roberts
of Cor Merched y Garth. The prize was discontinued after
1987, so all three medal went to the PONTYPRIDD area. |
