    Alamo,

    You forgot to add the " image " at the end of your statement.

    Of course, you know, that was simply a mistake of ANACS' - right? imageimage

    Do any of the grading services use the"RD" designation on flying eagles?

    This piece is not in a slab, but it is the best example of a true MS-60, Red that I have. Although this piece shows up as a dull red here, at different angle the piece shows virtually full red color and luster with some black spots and finger prints.

    This is a political campaign medalet for Constitutional Union candidates John Bell and Everate Everett. The 1860 presidential race was a four way contest that Abraham Lincoln won.

It won't have worked because things had just gone too far.

    After the war Bell gave a pro Confederacy speach that got him on the list of traitors in many people's minds. Everett, who was once the president of Harvard University, is best remembered for a two hour speech at Gettysburg that was followed by a much better rememebered two minute speach by Abraham Lincoln.
