Title: Undated (1883) Washington Si Quaeris Monumentum Medal. Baker-96. Bronze.
Header: Rare Si Quaeris Monumentum Medal
Description: Nearly as struck, somewhat dull in the fields with small obverse handling marks. Dies as illustrated, signed C.C.W.F. for Charles Cushing Wright. Holed for suspension. 64 mm. The golden-tan high-relief obverse has taken on a few ticks over the years and a hint of friction on the high points, but the reverse has fared far finer – this medal may have spent much of its cabinet life ring-side down when on display. A rare medallic tribute to our nation’s Father figure, with perhaps fewer than 20 pieces extant in any state of preservation.
