Indian Peace Medals And Related Items: Collecting The Symbols Of Peace And Friendship

Before the silver dollar, before the US Mint was built, before there was any US coinage-based commerce in the part of the New World we now call the United States of America, there was the Indian Peace Medal, metal tributes presented to Indian chiefs by governments as a show of friendship and peace. The Indian Peace Medal was not only the first numismatic event in our nation, it is one whose impact continues to be felt in modern coinage and medal minting practices, and in the political relations between the sovereign Native American nations and Washington D.C. This books provides an overview of this topic for those interested in collecting these medals as well as related items and re-strikes.
