Description
Select 1925 Large Format Silvered
Norse American Medal
1925 Large Format Norse American Medal MS63 NGC. 70.6 mm,
approximately 160.6 gm. The "almost commemorative" Norse American
Centennial program wound up being a medal instead, and its
octagonal shape was chosen to distinguish it from the round coins
of the same time period. This example in "triple-silvered bronze"
is far larger than the usual Norse medal, the better for public
display (as in museums), and is one of just 60 struck with an
unknown but doubtless small number of survivors. Light hairlines
visit broad surfaces that are silver on the interiors but show
considerable blue, peach, and antique-gold patina along the
margins.Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 9450)
