"1848" Major General Zachary Taylor, Battle of Buena Vista Medal.

"1848" Major General Zachary Taylor, Battle of Buena Vista Medal. Julian MI-24. Copper, Bronzed. MS-63 BN (NGC). 89.5 mm. Outstanding autumn-orange and mahogany-brown surfaces exhibit a hard frosty finish from the dies. Overall smooth and highly appealing, a few widely scattered blemishes hardly detract, especially since none are singularly distracting. One of the most impressive types in the entire United States Mint medal series, with a remarkably detailed battle scene from the Mexican-American War accomplished by Charles Cushing Wright dominating the reverse. Provenance: From the Henry Mitchell Collection. Earlier from Presidential Coin and Antique Co., Inc.'s Benj Fauver Collections sale, July 2006, lot 338.
