Description
Quintessential William Henry Harrison Campaign Medal This is the best Harrison medal produced for the campaign of 1840, Sullivan-DeWitt WHH 1840-1, 45 mm. The unique and bold design shows a high-relief log cabin on the obverse, inscribed "To Let, Possesion Given in 1841." The reverse states "The Young Men's Harrison Convention May 4th 1840." The raised rims are encircled by stars. Obviously rare (issued for a one-day event), copies, when offered, typically are well-worn. This specimen grades extremely fine with only minor wear on the highlights and some reflective surfaces, especially on the reverse. The McSorley example, in slightly better grade, realized $1,100.Auction Info
