Undated Portrait Medallion. Uniface. By Salathiel Ellis. Bronze. Nearly As Made. 8.75 inches. Bust of man right, signed by the artist S. ELLIS [illegible] along truncation. The bust is set in an open field, with an inner raised border that slopes down to the outer border. The back is blank, and painted green. A simple, if nicely executed work, well preserved apart from a few spots of oxidation on the front, over and around the neck. Collectors of U.S. Mint medals will recognize many of Ellis' works, including the Life Saving medal Julian LS-1 and the Indian Peace medals Julian IP-30, IP-31 and IP-36.
