Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 08/12/2015 10:13 am Hey guys, thought all you Lincoln-Heads would like to see this. I'm assuming it was obviously a medal given to the winner of a contest the "Peoria Journal" newspaper put on bug I can't find anything about the contest or this medal or anything really on this medal or any lincoln medal really save one with a dodgy background in the link below. If anyone can find anything about my specific medal I would appriciate the info. To all others, comment on it here. I like how it looks like a smashed Texas Cent lol. What do you think about it Enjoy this read if you haven't already about another vintage lincoln medal for journalistic type merit: http://quod.lib.umich.edu/j/jala/26...iew=fulltext Report this Post to the Staff

Penny Guy Pillar of the Community United States 531 Posts	Posted 08/17/2015 9:51 pm Found it! "Lincoln's Metallic Imagery" by Paul Cunningham, Page 185. Paul has created a Catalog numbering system, this item is listed as "C 19-090Bz". Value Code is C which translates to $10-$25. The book is available at Paul's web site http://cunninghamexonumia.com Report this Post to the Staff
