Jack Nicklaus is shown holding the first of his career total three Claret Jugs. It was the sixth of eighteen major titles for Nicklaus and marked the completion of the first of his three career grand slams. The 95th Open Championship took place at Muirfield and for the first time was extended to four days, running from Wednesday to Saturday, which was welcomed by players and spectators alike.

Nicklaus has described Muirfield as "the best golf course in Britain." He later developed a championship golf course and community in Dublin, Ohio, a suburb north of his hometown of Columbus. Opened in 1974, Nicklaus named it Muirfield Village and it hosts his Memorial Tournament, a top invitational event on the PGA Tour since 1976.

To commemorate this historic accomplishment we have created a ball marker using an original 1966 British Penny. Using the latest printing technology we have captured this famous image on one side of the farthing.
