- 1825 John Quincy Adams Indian Peace Medal. Copper, Bronzed. First Size. Second Reverse. Julian IP-11, Prucha-42. MS-65 BN (NGC). 75.6 mm. 3174.5 grains. Lovely deep mahogany bronze with faint accents of blue in the fields. The beautiful patina is virtually undisturbed with none of the usual breaks on the high points from handling. The surfaces are remarkably free of impairments beyond one unfortunate rim bump on the reverse. Struck from the original obverse die with the same pair of thin die breaks seen on the medal in the previous lot. The reverse die has been replaced with the one prepared in 1846 and first used for the 1849 Zachary Taylor medals. On this piece, the reverse exhibits minor spalling in places, suggesting a slightly later use of the die. A very attractive medal overall. Provenance: Ex Stack's Bowers Galleries, September 2011, lot 93.
