Curt Nelson, director of the Royals Hall of Fame, showed off the newly cleaned and engraved 2015 World Series trophy Thursday at Kauffman Stadium.
The Commissioner’s Trophy — the formal name for the 30-inch high trophy composed of 200 troy ounces of sterling silver and adorned by 30 gold-plated flags — is made by Tiffany & Co. That’s where it was sent off late last year after it was stained with sparkling wine and other beverages from the team’s celebration after beating the Mets.
As a final touch, the words “Kansas City Royals” were engraved on the base and the bottom of the cleaned and polished trophy.
