Very nice group, WHC, with some wonderful patinas. Thanks for sharing those.

I've not seen this one before; can you tell us about the maker / artist ? Is it a Lincoln Essay Medal ?

Thanks, Dearborn. Decided to go through and organize the medals collection this weekend. It's also fun to see various categories grouped together.

This James A. Garfield medal arrived several years ago loose in a 10 pound lot of miscellaneous medals, tokens, and junk coins. Nice size and quite heavy - 3" and 208.4 g. Not sure if it's worth my time to treat the corrosion on it.
