This listing is for the Leslie Hebert Liberty Tree Boston, Mass, 1765-75 Bicentennial Commemorative Medal. This commemorative medal by Leslie Hebert features a high-relief depiction of the historic Boston Liberty Tree, inscribed with the dates 1765-75 to mark the decade it served as a primary site for revolutionary protest. Struck on a circular planchet with a copper-toned patina, the piece includes a small hole at the top for use as a pendant or keychain. The reverse side identifies the tree as the bicentennial of our country’s first symbol of freedom, with the dates 1965-75 indicating it was minted to mark the lead-up to the United States Bicentennial. Historically, the tree was a vital meeting place for the Sons of Liberty until it was destroyed by British forces in 1775, and this medal serves as a modern tribute to that landmark of American independence.
