1911 Edward Knox Elder / Chief Wah-She-Ha (Bacon Rind) medal. Copper. Choice Mint State. 38.2 mm. 305.6 grains. Pierced for suspension. Generous original orange and red copper remain while soft lavender accents the prooflike fields. A very handsome specimen with just a few scattered patina flecks, mostly requiring magnification to discern. Though not as rare as the silver example above, this medal in copper is very far from common. Just 15 examples are thought to have been struck in this composition and it is nearly a decade since we last sold one, this example, in January 2011. Ex Stack’s, January 2011, lot 6197.
