Title: Circa 1850-1860 Washington Reward of Merit Medal. Baker-354A. White Metal.
Header: Superb White Metal Reward of Merit
Description: As struck, approaching Gem quality. Dies as illustrated, by Key of Philadelphia. 38 mm. Perhaps a trifle cloudy in the reflective obverse field, but the reverse is Gem quality and offers a bold cameo contrast. These Reward of Merit pieces come to market only occasionally, and often years will pass before an example makes an auction appearance. The design is beautiful and the rarity is high enough that you probably need an example in your growing Washingtoniana cabinet, so take advantage of this opportunity while you can.
