IP-42. U.S. Grant Indian Peace Medal, 1871. Copper bronzed, 63.3mm, 6.8mm thick. By Anthony C. Paquet. About Uncirculated. A second example, displaying lighter brown surfaces.
The President's Cabinet took over this medal's design, throwing in everything except the kitchen sink but omitting Grant's name! Many Copper bronzed examples were sold to collectors for their ''Presidential'' sets just as the Lincoln Peace Medal had been sold earlier.
