Description

Washingtoniana
Circa 1805 Sansom Medal. Original. Early Impression. Musante GW-58, Baker-71B. White Metal. Plain edge. SP-62 (PCGS).
40.6 mm. 340.5 grains. Boldly prooflike through the fields, contrasting sharply with the frosty white devices. Light hairlines in the fields and a few scattered marks in the soft metal. Small nicks in the inside rim near PRES on the obverse. Some lightly flecked patina on both sides and some microscopic granularity in the upper reverse field, but still quite visually striking and much nicer than the more often encountered dull gray and frequently heavily pested examples.
PCGS# 626615.
From the E Pluribus Unum Collection.
Estimate: $1000
