Description du lot

Undated (ca. 1860) Success Medal. Small Size. Musante GW-44, Baker-267A, W-10877. Brass. Plain Edge. AU-53 (PCGS). An overall sharply defined example with handsome brassy-copper patina to the obverse, the reverse overall lighter in dominant antique brassy-gold. The eye in the center of the reverse is blunt, the denticulation is missing in some peripheral areas on both sides, but in general the strike is well executed. The surfaces are smooth in hand with a pleasing satin texture and plenty of visual appeal. Outstanding and highly desirable AU quality for this popular Washington type. PCGS# 782.
