Lot Description

Undated (Possibly Circa 1793) Washington Success Medal. Small Size. Baker-267A, W-10877. Rarity-4. Brass. Plain Edge. MS-62 (PCGS). Lustrous and glossy olive-gold surfaces with deeper highlights on the design high points. Toning spots noted at Washington's shoulder and neckline under ear, otherwise no surfaces disturbances are seen. Typical reverse strike, the all-seeing eye just a blob. Still, choice for the assigned grade.
