DAR – Great Women of the American Revolution – Meliscent Barrett – Pewter Medallion – Although she was only 15, she supervised a group of women and young girls who made all the cartridges used by patriots at the Battle of Concord. Originally commissioned in 1974 by the Daughters of the American Revolution and issued by the Franklin Mint by subscription, less than 1,000 examples of this beautiful high-relief medallic piece were issued. This medal was struck from 43 grams of fine pewter and has a 45 millimeter diameter.
