Description
Circa 1861 U.S. Mint Oath of Allegiance Medal. Musante GW-476, Baker-279, Julian CM-2. Silver. SP-62 (PCGS).
30.3 mm. Struck on a thick flan and toned to a deep silver gray. However, mottled pastel iridescence adds considerably to the eye appeal, particularly on the reverse where vivid green, gold and blue enliven the prooflike fields. The high wire rims have taken some impacts, but they have largely protected the remaining surfaces from all but a few faint hairlines and a gentle softening of the highest point of Washington's hair. A popular U.S. Mint issue relating to the Civil War, and likely an early impression as those on thick flans seem to be.
From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Purchased on eBay, January 2005.
