Thomas Jefferson peace medal / United States

Essay/Description

This is a heavy solid silver medal with a hole pierced in the top for hanging purposes. It is clear the medal is not hollow because of the hole. Possibly a restrike? On the front is a bust of the president. The back features two hands shaking, a crossed pipe and a tomahawk pipe.
