GENERAL STONEWALL JACKSON FRENCH MEDAL / MEDALLION, white metal, the obverse featuring a left-facing profile bust portrait of Jackson inscribed with his name and life dates, erroneously listing 1821 as his birth year, the reverse lists the battles he participated and the CSA motto "Deo Vindici" [sic]. Signed CAQUE. F. below the bust for Armand Auguste Caque, Paris mint engraver. Housed under glass in a possibly original black-painted molded-tin frame with rear window. Minted in 1864. 2" D medal, 3 3/8" DOA.
Catalogue Note: Col. Charles Augustus LaFayette Lamar (1824-1865) of Georgia commissioned Armand Auguste Caque of Paris to strike around 500 of these medals. Lamar was killed by a stray shot in the streets of Columbus, Georgia on April 16,1865, seven days after Lee's surrender. He was a Colonel in the 25th Georgia Cavalry when he died. One account says a Yankee soldier killed him during a confrontation. He has been called the "last conspicuous man" killed in the Civil War. The medals were turned over to Lamar's widow, who kept them sequestered in a Savannah cotton warehouse. There, they remained for over twenty-five years until they were given to the Ladies Auxiliary of the Confederate Veterans Association, which sold them for one dollar each to benefit wounded veterans of the South.
The medal is in uncirculated condition with excellent luster. The frame has some losses to the paint.
From the Dr. John W. Lynn collection, Petersburg, VA.
