The For President die was engraved by Benjamin F. True of Cincinnati. It appeared on the obverse of an 1860 campaign medalet an example can be seen here http://historical.ha.com/itm/politi...ption-071515

I have been unable to locate the other one.

These appear to be modern restrikes maybe done in the 1960s during the centennial years of the Civil War (1961-1965)

Thanks! Still trying to find these to figure out where they came from but it did lead me to this article. http://www.coinworld.com/news/us-co...lection.html
Obviously these aren't the originals so someone made these commemoratives. Just can't believe I can't find any just like these yet.
