[QUOTE="SwineOfTroyes, post: 3063434, member: 38150"]I have noticed a good number of these selling on ebay from time to time, but I there is so little posted online (or nothing) that explains the history of these. I know they were limited to 4000 bronze and I think even less silver. They were made because Johnson wanted to be on the medal with Kennedy. There were errors with on the reverse that stated Johnson as the 38th vice president, but was corrected to 37th early in the run. I believe only 40 silver went out with this error. Does anyone know a history or a site that has info on these? To see the bronze selling for $50+ tells me they are in demand. I can't believe there is so little online with these things not only being limited to 4,000 but also having errors. Or am I just missing the info somewhere? Thanks all. (Also these images were taken from an online auction site that didn't have info. )[/QUOTE]
