The first two were attributed and I paid nutty money for the first one as I haven't cherried one yet. The 15A was a very nice cherry. The last two are best educated guesses from internet images, both for common money so it doesn't matter. The last could be a 14.1, though it looks more like a 9.

Love that medal everytime I see one, slumlord. It is definitely not within my collecting focus but would love to pick up a few of them for me and my girls one of these days.
Look at the designs coming out of the US MInt and look at that.

That gets right to the point!
I bought this in the el cheapo aisle at the ANA for $125. I don't know if that's a fair price or not, but as often as this brings a smile to my face, it seems like money well spent. An interesting feature is that the reverse is concave to foster the depth illusion, and the obverse is quite convex with a high relief outside view of St. Peter's. Very impressive piece of copper, and shows how much more the mint could do to make truly impressive products!
