Description

Undated General Washington Shell. Electrotype Copy. Musante GW-66, for type. Copper. Extremely Fine.

52 mm. A design attributed to Lewis Pingo by Musante, though it is unsigned. Originals seem to have been die struck and uniface, according to descriptions of other pieces, but this one is clearly an electrotype. Likely a product of the 1850s. Glossy light brown-copper with fine orange accents around the devices.
