Picked up for $2 from the LCS. Surprised by the price he suggested.

I understand Van Buren, but why Webster? Why not Harrison (who won the 1840 presidential election) or Tyler (his successor)?

The Whig party ran three candidates against Van Buren effectively splitting their votes and putting Van Buren in the presidency. This token was minted when Webster was the presumed Whig candidate.

I am a big fan of HTTs and can tell you that $2 was a steal! Enjoy.

Edited: corrected party affiliation.
