Lot Description

Circa 1793 Washington Success Token. Large Size. Second Obverse. Musante GW-42, Baker-266B, Breen-1283. Brass. Plain edge. VF-35 (PCGS). Blue-green and deep olive gold patina with minimal traces of orange in the periphery. A couple of small darker spots are noted on the obverse. Good detail for the grade, this having been struck better than many. The all-seeing eye is still without its central detail, but it is in better relief here than even on the higher grade reeded edge example offered in the previous lot. Provenance: From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
