I completely forgot that the Wonder Girls used this (a totally unique object which is one of two things to be ripped from TaR) for their adam studies. Aw hell, capturing Moggy is prolly way more unique/important, so I can't blame 'em...

Still, Mat feels the medallion after hurting the G-man. His internal monologue says that it isn't cold like when it activates - it's just cool like normal metal is...
I doubt that the burn on the creature happened because two anti-power objects came into contact. Why? Because even in this book series, that's a lot of complication on some minor things...
And if it protected Mat because the Gholam was made by the Power, it would suggest that any power-made shadowspawn would burn when touching Mat/the Medallion. Weird, complicated, and no way Mat's letting them lay a finger - so that also sounds absurdly complicated. Yeah, I know, Occam's Razor in WoT?

I think(/hope) Mat is preparing for this, since he's a good general and knows the creature has been dogging him across like 4 countries. But the Lightside lives in a world where they don't have our vampire and werewolf myths, so silver as an evil-killer is new for them...

I amend my statement to read that in a thrilling moment of circularity, Birgitte somehow gets a quiver of silver arrows and nails that queen/rapist-murdering jerk.
