Description

LOT WITHDRAWN

38 mm. Unpierced. One of the more modern Indian Peace medals, this type was struck privately by Edward Knox Elder, Indian trader and brother of numismatist Thomas Elder. Aluminum is the "common" metallic composition of this type (reported as White Metal on the NGC insert), with a reported mintage of 400 pieces, however that figure is questionable as survivors appear in the market with far less frequency that such a mintage would suggest. This Gem Mint State example is one of the finest that we can recall offering, with lustrous bright silver-gray surfaces. Considerable evidence of die rust is noted for the obverse.

Estimate: $1000
