1865 Andrew Johnson Peace Medal, Large Size, Baker-173X, Julian
IP-40, Baxter-58, Musante GW-770, Silver--Tooled--NGC Details.
AU. 76 mm. Holed at 12 o'clock. Anthony Paquet prepared the
deeply basined dies for this issue that he turned over to the
Philadelphia Mint in late October 1865. All 90 large size and 90
small size medals were struck in December 1865 and January 1866.
These medals are much rarer than the Lincoln silver Peace medals,
with a total surviving population in the order of eight to 10
medals. Boldly struck in sharp relief, this important medal has
grayish golden-brown surfaces with an area of crisscross tooling
marks at the lower left obverse. Many small surface marks are
evident on both sides.Ex: Rossa and Tannenbaum (11/10/1990); Jon Hanson; Donald G. Partrick.
