Description
Baker-47B Original Washington Before Boston
Medal in Bronze, Unc Details
(1790) Washington Before Boston Medal in Bronze--Improperly
Cleaned--NGC Details. Unc. Baker-47B. 68.8 mm. This largest of
the Comitia Americana medals has been restruck numerous
times in its history, but this example is one of the bronze
originals. Diagnostics from Rulau-Fuld, Medallic Portraits of
Washington: "On all originals, the O in PRIMO is perfectly
round ... There are periods after XVII. and MDCCLXXVI. The last I
of MARTII is under the R of RECUPERATUM." Scattered light abrasions
and hairlines from a past cleaning do little to dull this medal's
inherent majesty.
