Near TOP POP, only two graded finer in 63. William Jennings Bryan ran unsuccessfully for the presidency three times, in 1896, 1900 and 1908. His platform was the free coinage of silver. New Your City coin dealer Thomas Elder struck a series of satirical medals regarding Bryan’s campaign. This is the rare silver variety, only five certified and non graded higher. Lovely iridescent toning with hints of shimmering blue and delicious champagne.
