1914 Medal Honeycutt-106 Brass
Strike TypeCoin Details
Description
This 1914 brass medal cataloged as Honeycutt-106 dates to the later years of the Philippine Commission era, when the American colonial government was transitioning toward greater Filipino self-governance. The brass composition distinguishes this piece from the more common bronze medals in the Philippine series, as brass — an alloy of copper and zinc — produces a distinctly yellow appearance compared to the reddish-brown of bronze. The 1914 date places this medal during the administration of Governor-General Francis Burton Harrison, who was appointed by President Woodrow Wilson and pursued a policy of "Filipinization" of the colonial government. Honeycutt-106 catalogs this within the systematic Philippine medal reference, which covers medals from the Spanish colonial period through the American era and into the Commonwealth years.
