They were struck with different designs, and in bronze, silver and even gold. The gold ones have some value as not many were made, but the others are fairly common. __________________   03-30-2009, 04:14 PM   #7 (permalink) Andrew67 Clueless     Join Date: Nov 2008 Location: Central Maine Posts: 558 Nice medal __________________ My cointalk albums   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Tags american, bicentenial, coin, liberty, revolution Would you like to support CoinTalk?
