Roosevelt/Mckinley Political Medallion

[steelheadwill]

William Mckinley had slogan 'Patriotism, Protection, and Prosperity' in 1896 election,
Kinda looks like him.
and what about the WIJJ counterstamps? made from aluminum. Minted or Die cast ?
thanks for looking! HH, Herbie

Re: Political Medal

I think the image is of Teddy Roosevelt, Mckinley's running mate for the '96 election.

Im just guessing, but its looks as if that token was put in an arcade machine.

Thanks!, before researching the slogan, I had already written a post for this as T. Roosevelt, looks just like him. I didn't read deep enough to find Mckinleys running mate.
