I've always thought of Abraham Lincoln as the greatest of American presidents, greater than Washington, Jefferson, and the rest. Given the impossible choice of killing his own people in a gruesome war, or doing the right thing and abolishing slavery, Lincoln chose 'do the right thing.' It was an amazing act of courage. If our politicians today had one-tenth the courage, our world would be a better place.
But I digress ...
These are modern tokens made to commemorate this great person. They are mass produced in brass or bronze by the thousands and sold in gift and novelty shops. You can buy one on eBay for a few US dollars.
