1739 Admiral Vernon Medal. Porto Bello with Vernon's Portrait Alone. Adams-Chao PBv 21-R, M-G 46. Rarity-7. Pinchbeck. AU-58 (PCGS).

36.5 mm. 276.9 grains. Inviting olive-brown surfaces exhibit bold to sharp detail throughout the design. There is a touch of granularity to the texture, but in the absence of sizeable marks both sides present as impressively smooth in hand. Really a lovely example, ideal for the collector seeking one nice Admiral Vernon medal for general type purposes.

PCGS# 930170.

From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier from Baldwin's Auction 7, June 21, 2017, lot 676.
