1862 Abraham Lincoln Indian Peace Medal. Large Size. Bronze. 76 mm. Julian IP-38, Cunningham 22-020Bz, King-520. Second Reverse. MS-63 BN (NGC).Rich reddish-copper patina on the reverse yields to slightly lighter mahogany-brown toning on the obverse. The latter side is smooth enough to support a Gem Mint State grade, although the former reveals a few scattered peripheral spots and a couple of shallow abrasions in the left field. Smartly impressed with a satin to modestly semi-reflective finish from the dies. Struck from the second reverse die of the type, identifiable by the absence of engraver Joseph Willsons name below the vignette.
