A Collection of Presidential Election Campaign Medals- Andrew Jackson through Abraham Lincoln
By Ernie Nagy

These medals were issued to persuade voters during election cycles. Some promote policies which were debated during the day, some have fascinating stories. In total they document the era when Electoral College representatives were first selected by voters and not state legislatures. Some of the pieces in the collection resemble coins which circulated at the time, some are fine works of numismatic art. The collection includes pieces issued by the winning candidates now familiar to us, and also those who ran unsuccessfully and are all but forgotten. A few of the pieces are rare, but a surprising number of them are easily obtainable. Whether or not you collect these, if you enjoy American history you'll find this talk interesting.
