A two-piece medal by Whitehead and Hoag, with bronze tones. Top pinback bar with flowing foliate, somewhat art-nouveau border reading, “VETERAN / U.C.V. / RICHMOND, 1907” in raised letters. The medal itself prominently shows the Jefferson Davis Memorial, which had been unveiled in 1907 on Davis’s birthday, June 3, with the UCV reunion timed to coincide. Davis’s statue is shown on a pedestal at lower center, with the tall column behind it topped by a statue representing southern womanhood, and a colonnade behind it with columns representing the various Confederate states.

The medal has the dates “1861” and “1865” on scrolls to either side, superimposed on leafy branches, likely laurel, which are also shown crossed at bottom center. The edge has a stippled border into which the statue at top of the column intrudes, and bears in small, raised letters, “TO JEFFERSON DAVIS / PRESIDENT OF THE CONFEDERATE STATES OF AMERICA.” The medal retains coppery, bronze tones with some thin, darker stains. Please see our photos.  [sr][ph:m]
