Description
1942 United States Assay Commission Medal. JK AC-87, Baker E-348. Rarity-7. Bronze. Presented to Grace Cady Coy. Specimen-64 (PCGS).
58 mm. Edge incuse GRACE CADY COY at 12 o'clock. Smooth tan-gold patina. It is reported that only 18 examples were struck for this issue, utilizing previously existing designs for economy in production during the very early days of World War II. The competing obverse and reverse portraits, of Franklin Roosevelt and George Washington, will pit collectors of those two presidents, as well as collectors of Assay Commission medals in general, against each other to see who will take this rare one home.
From our (Stack's) sale of the Ernest E. Keusch Collection of United States Assay Medals, 1860-1977, November 2008, lot 5338.
