1871 Ulysses S. Grant Indian Peace Medal. The Only Size. Bronze. 63 mm. Julian IP-42. MS-65 BN (NGC).A beautiful mahogany-brown example with a sharp strike, satin to semi-reflective finish and solid Gem Mint State quality. The Ulysses S. Grant medal is somewhat of an anomaly within the Indian Peace series as it is the only one to omit the presidents name, and the only one to portray the Bible. Anthony C. Paquets charismatic portrait dominates the obverse, while the reverse illustrates the globe surrounded by agricultural implements, the whole topped by a book labeled HOLY BIBLE within a sunburst glory. Always popular with collectors.
