Produced by British forces for presentation to Native American chiefs who allied with them during the War of 1812. Such Medals were tokens of gratitude and symbols of alliance, representing a significant chapter in the complex relationships among British forces, Native American tribes, and the emerging United States. This particular Medal is not only a testament to the alliances formed during this tumultuous period, but also serves as a direct link to the last significant conflict between the United States and Britain.
