In addition to being my best client for over three decades, Dick Ulbrich was also one of my best friends. We would sit in his den for hours on end discussing antiques, numismatics, politics, or the state of the nation. His death in 2008 left a permanent void in my life. Though best known for his incomparable collection of early American arms and armaments, Dick had superb accumulations of political items, colonial numismatics, exonumia and numerous other types of American historical artifacts. I am honored to present here his amazing collection of silver Indian peace medals, to be sold together as one group. Item 1-A is an amazing large size George Washington peace medal by Joseph Richardson Jr. of Philadelphia, with a presumably original deerskin pouch. Plated in Prucha's
Indian Peace Medals in American History, it was purchased privately from Stack's in 1997. -Editor
