Description

Undated (ca. 1862) Washington Tomb Medalet. By George Hampden Lovett. Musante GW-562, Baker-128. Silver. MS-64 (PCGS).

19.1 mm. 76.0 grains. A rather lovely example of this scarce little medal that is usually deeply toned. This piece is much lighter than usual and pleasantly prooflike. Not listed by Rulau and Fuld in silver, but this was an apparent oversight as Baker did list it in this composition.

From the E Pluribus Unum Collection. Earlier from Presidential Coin and Antique Co., Inc.'s sale of May 1981, lot 255.

Estimate: $ 450
