newdude Valued Member United States 210 Posts	Posted 06/18/2022 11:29 pm new to me, candidates medal. Not finding a whole lot of info about it. I saw a couple on line with the date on the front. Looks like it was worn as a medal in support of your candidate. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34453 Posts	Posted 06/19/2022 01:45 am That is an interesting piece @new. I think that it is a match for this Heritage auction: https://historical.ha.com/itm/polit...6178-98140.s Here is their description: Quote: Harrison & Reid: Jugate Token with Brass Shell Shield Hanger. Similar to BH-1888-13, 32 mm white metal. The reverse shows the Capitol and reads: "Republican Candidates 1892 U. S. Capitol".

newdude Valued Member United States 210 Posts	Posted 06/19/2022 3:26 pm Spence, thank you for the info. the shield was separate among other coins in the box. I wouldn't have known they were a piece. I only found a couple images of the token none had the shield. Report this Post to the Staff
