Major General William H. Harrison J.MI.14 obverse/Governor Isaac Shelby J.MI.21 Battle of the Thames reverse muling. Copper, bronzed. 65.1 mm. Choice Uncirculated. Good, even deep brown. Cabinet friction on Harrison's hair. Fairly rare: these mules made for partisans and collectors do not come up very often. The one in Kessler-Spangenberger, for example, went from there into David Dreyfuss' collection and was bought for Ambassador Middendorf at the Dreyfuss sale. There was another in Presidential Coin & Antique Company's sale of October, 2000.
Pedigree unrecorded.
