1909 Abraham Lincoln Centennial Plaque. Cast bronze. 165 mm. By V. D. Brenner. Cunningham 24-280. About Uncirculated. Brenners classic Lincoln portrait with dates 1809 to the left and 1909 to the right, as used with the popular Preserve Protect / Defend medals. Signed V. D. Brenner at left rim. Uniface, with the back showing remnants of 4 mounting bolts, a rough textured surface showing just a bit of "ghosting" of the obverse portrait, and a wire hanger for mounting. Quite appealing, and the first we have seen in this format. From the Richard Jewell Collection.
