Description: Here's a 1" brass or bronze token or medal showing the man who received the 1880 democrat party's presidential nomination, Civil War General Winfield Scott Hancock. Considered one of the heroes of the Battle of Gettysburg, Hancock was nicknamed "The Superb," off a praiseworthy comment by his commander, George McClellan. He barely lost this election to another Civil War general, James Garfield, or history may have had one less assassinated president! National turnout was one of the highest recorded and yet the vote difference between the men was a mere 1900 votes! Imagine that in those days with such limited technology. What's cool about this token is that it shows Hancock's unit insignia from the war with the "superb" quote on the reverse. We also have a token with both him and his running mate, William English on it, our item 275613371530.
