The George Rogers medal is part of a four-medal series issued by the Indiana Numismatic Association.

The obverse of each medal has great relief.

I've seen versions that have a "normal" bronze patina; this one caught my eye for being out of the ordinary.

The New Jersey Tercentenary Medallion was designed by Anthony Notaro, who also contributed to MACO's "Society of Medalists" and "Hall of Fame for Great Americans at NYU" series:

Excellent medal, CaptainBilly! And thank you for including the insert information - it was a much needed history lesson for me.

1963 MACO "Hall of Fame for Great Americans at NYU" Abraham Lincoln. This is the 3 inch, 288g, version. Sculptor: Anthony De Francisci (whose most famous design was the Peace dollar).

No insert, unfortunately. Would have enjoyed reading the artist's comments on his reverse design, which includes Lincoln's famous quotation from his June 16, 1858, speech at the Illinois Republican State Convention in Springfield. De Francisci also designed the 1920 Maine Centennial Commemorative Half Dollar.
