1812, 1813 AND 1815 NAVAL MEDALS SOUGHT FOR EXHIBIT

Charley Marsteller submitted this request for help completing a planned exhibit. Can anyone help him locate the needed medals? -Editor

We are seeking for purchase 20th Century replicas for the 1812, 1813 and 1815 NAVAL Medals struck by the US Mint for an exhibition at a San Francisco Museum display in 2013. There are about 13 unique or novel reverse types depicting the naval engagement for which the naval hero was honored.

To date, we have six of the novel reverse types. Presently we are short seven of the novel reverse types. Thus, our WANT LIST includes the medals for:

  • Decatur
  • Bainbridge
  • Lawrence
  • Burrows/McCall
  • Stewart
  • Biddle, and
  • the medal struck by the US Mint for the Government of PA for Perry

The local coin club in SF has been asked to assist in this effort.

So if E-Sylum Readers have these medals for sale, or know of someone who does, we would very much appreciate their help as we are on deadline.
