- 1825 John Quincy Adams Indian Peace Medal. Copper, Bronzed. First Size. First Reverse. Julian IP-11, Prucha-42. MS-63 BN (NGC). 75.8 mm. 3427.6 grains. Light olive bronze with just the faintest breaks of the patina on the highest points. Satiny devices stand out nicely from the prooflike fields on both sides. Nicked in the obverse fields but still quite pleasing. Traces of soft blue iridescence add to the visual appeal. Struck from the original dies, but in later states. The obverse has cracked through the rim in two places. One is above the C in QUINCY, continuing through that letter and nearly to the bust. Another break passes right of the I in PRESIDENT and into Adams’ head. The reverse exhibits small areas of spalling or rust, as other bronzes from this die, most notably beneath the clasped hands, left of the cuff near the rim, and right of the tomahawk head. Provenance: Ex Stack's Bowers Galleries, August 2013, lot 1082.
