Strike TypeCoin Details
Description
Vermont's centennial of statehood and the dedication of the Bennington Battle Monument were celebrated together at Bennington on August 19, 1891, and HK-151 is the official medal of the day in white metal. The obverse shows a shield draped with six flags over cannon at each side, ringed by 14 stars, with 1791-1891 below and the border legend "Centennial celebration of the admission of Vermont as a state." On the reverse a tall monument stands in a countersunk center between 1777 and 1891, with "Dedication Bennington" and "Battle monument" on the raised surface around it. The Centennial Commission and the Monument Association designed it together. The same dies were used in bronze for HK-150. White metal, 38 mm.
