Mine arrived today for activating W1AW/3 in DC.
I had a ton of fun during that week - making 125 satellite QSOs and somewhere around 1,000 HF QSOs from W3DQ's station here in DC. I've never had the experience of calling CQ and having the world come back to me after just a couple of calls. It was an experience I'll probably only be able to replicate if I go on a DXpedition someday.
Thanks to the ARRL for the nice memento of that week!

Today I got a surprise in the mail. The ARRL sent me two commemorative medallions mounted in a plexiglass display which is engraved "NR0T was W1AW/MN"
Very sharp looking addition to the shack. I worked only Satellite QSOs on both of the Minnesota weeks.
It is a beautiful commemorative gift and caught me totally by surprised. Thank you ARRL!
