1845 James K. Polk Indian Peace Medal. Second Size. Bronze. 62 mm. Julian IP-25. MS-63 BN (NGC).This stunning specimen reveals decided reflectivity in the fields as the surfaces dip into a light. Direct lighting also calls forth pretty undertones of antique gold, powder blue and pale pink, the dominant appearance one of warm olive-brown patina. A smartly impressed, sharply defined example with only a few faint spots precluding an even higher grade. Second reverse with no die rust around the periphery and flat-topped As in PEACE and AND.
