    Be still my heart !!

     

    I can only assume that there are a majority of folk here with Draped Busts

    from the early 1800's ? I think not.

     

    How about someone post an early 1800 anything else !!

     

    Please forgive my friend KeyMan64 - he only likes pop top varieties with FB's !

    I'm surprised he posted anything but a Mercury Dime. (shrug)

    A new medal. I found the design to be quite lovely.

     

    This medal is a restrike of the medal given to all members of the armed forces who served in World War II. It was designed by Mr. Thomas H. Jones, whose initials can be seen on the obverse at the right base of the female figure.

     

    The female figure, Liberation, is shown facing left as though looking to the dawn of a new day, her right foot resting on a Roman war god’s helmet. In her right hand is a broken sword with the blade that was broken off in her left hand, symbolizing defeat of the Axis powers. Visible behind the war helmet is a rising sun with rays.
