Item Description
7/8" w/stud back. "W. H. Haskell" imprint on reverse. Faint light brown dots of toning scattered around extreme outer edges barely affecting text. Portrait is 100% clean. Extremely Fine. Teller, a Republican Senator from Colorado, supported the free silver movement. In 1896 he split w/the GOP over their support of the gold standard and received eight votes for President during the Democratic party's nominating convention. He helped form the Silver Republican party and was their nominee for President. First we've offered in our 52 years.
