Lot Title: Washington Success Medal Large Size, Plain Edge
Lot Number: 507
Description: Alpha Collection. Baker-265 (R.6) exhibits a plain edge on a large, thin flan, and is a rare Redbook entry, struck in brass. This is the die-state always seen, with an arcing die crack plainly visible on the obverse, leading to a sunken die, and uneven striking pressure. The pleasing olive-gold color seen here is just about perfect for the type, and moderate wear, along with very shallow die engraving, explains the smooth, boldly outlined, but minimally detailed sharpness. A couple of ancient pinscratches on the reverse should not impeded the very-fine grade level.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
