EUROPEAN FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP '96 "STANLEY MATTHEWS 1915" Royal Mint Issue Silver Medal.
The 1930s were a glamorous decade for football with high attendance, high scoring teams and, outside the United Kingdom, three World Cup Finals. And emerging from this period was a young right-winger whose name for the next thirty years was a byword for soccer excellence. Stanley Matthews began and ended his career with Stoke City. A supremely gifted individualist whose fame eclipsed that of all his contemporaries, he was a sublime dribbler . The "Wizard of the Dribble" .
