1865 Andrew Johnson Indian Peace Medal. Medium Size. Bronzed Copper. 63 mm. Julian IP-41, Musante GW-771, Baker-173W. MS-65 BN (NGC). Rich mahogany-brown patina blankets both sides of this smooth, satin to modestly semi-reflective example. It is smartly impressed with razor sharp striking detail throughout the design. A couple of trivial carbon spots on the obverse are all that seem to preclude an even higher grade. This design by Anthony C. Paquet features a bust of Washington on the reverse, making this a little known inclusion in the Baker and Musante references on Washington medals. A challenging type to find with the solid Gem quality and strong eye appeal offered here.
