1770 Death of George Whitefield Medal. Betts-527. Bronze, 36.3 mm. MS-61 BN (PCGS).
314.9 grains. Rich and lustrous chocolate brown surfaces with eye appeal far in excess of the assigned grade. Essentially problem free but for a little area of scale inside the obverse rim around 2 o'clock. An awe-inspiring die crack dominates the lower right obverse. A very impressive piece.
PCGS# 636823.
