Undated (ca. 1867) Thomas Jefferson / Equal and Exact Justice for All Men Medal. By John Adams Bolen. Musante JAB-26. Copper. MS-64 RB (NGC).25.3 mm. Faded red surfaces verging on violet with outlines of richer orange around the devices. Somewhat prooflike with many fine die finishing lines in the fields seen upon close study. This appears to be an earlier die state than Bolens own edge-marked medal in silver, so it would be a Bolen original, and one of the 16 reported struck in copper.From the Claremont Collection.
