1864 U.S. Mint Julian PR-35 Crisis Demands Lincoln NGC PF61


1864 U.S. Mint Julian PR-35  Crisis Demands Lincoln
 
18.3mm, 5.6 grams. By Anthony C. Paquet. Obv. Bearded head r., anepigraphic. Rev. Commanding inscription, AN HONEST MAN/ THE CRISIS/ DEMANDS/ HIS RE-ELECTION. This exquisite piece is related to a genre of Medalets struck by the Philadelphia Mint but is the only purely political design. 
 
The wording of the reverse suggests an answer to the rumblings of discontent at the continuation of the Civil War that brought General McClellan the Democratic nomination at the party's Chicago convention but defeat in the election.
