1878 Pair of Commemorative Medals, Major General John S
<B>1878 Pair of Commemorative Medals, Major General John Stark.</B></I> Two medallions, a silver version and a brown copper one, issued to commemorate the Battle of Bennington, Vermont, in 1777. These medals measure approximately 40 mm each and were issued by the Vermont Numismatic Society. The obverse of each medal depicts Major General John Stark. The medals were die-sunk by Robert Lovett and engraved by Hennrick of Delaware. A nice pair from an early numismatic organization. The market value is about $125-$175.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
