<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Joshua Lemons, post: 8080030, member: 82388&quot;]I&#039;ve spent some time trying to track down a Cuban medalist.&nbsp; No luck.&nbsp; But, Charles Barber designed much of Cuba&#039;s coinage in the early 1900&#039;s and 1910&#039;s before his death The designs carried over until the mid 1930&#039;s.&nbsp; Cuban coins were also minted at the Philadelphia mint, the pesos interestingly on the same blanks as peace dollars.&nbsp; Now, I saw several Barber medals unsigned but attributed to him.&nbsp; The following engraver, George T. Morgan had medals as well, but most of them I saw were signed.&nbsp; Following him was Sinnock, who designed the Roosevelt dime and Franklin half, but of note many of his medals were unsigned and featured liberty and women in long dresses.&nbsp; Either way, I have a sneaking hunch that the medals origins lie within the U.S. mint and it&#039;s designers/engravers, but which one it would be, I don&#039;t know. Likely not Barber for this medal as he died in 1917.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
