PERSHING AND MARSHALL CONGRESSIONAL GOLD MEDALS

Scott Miller writes:

A few weeks ago there was some discussion about designs of 20th century Congressional gold medals. Some designs by Anthony de Francisci can be seen on the Smithsonian’s art database on SIRIS. I am attaching links to medals for Pershing and George C. Marshall.

Thanks. There are also images of the plaster models for the Marshall medal. -Editor
