Description

1840 William Henry Harrison Campaign Medal. DeWitt-WHH 1840-1. White Metal. Choice Very Fine.
43.8 mm. Pierced for suspension, as with others seen. A very impressive medal, distinctive in both size and design. Smooth pewter gray with just a trace of light pesting that appears glossy and completely non-threatening. Produced for the Young Men's Harrison Convention, held in Baltimore on May 4th, 1840, an apparent Whig rally intended to generate support among young voters.
From Presidential Coin & Antique Co. Inc.'s Auction Eighty-Three, June 2013, lot 106; our sale of the Brian Dobbins Collection of American Political Tokens, March 2018 Baltimore Auction, lot 28.
