Alan V. Weinberg comments: Not particularly rare in brz or silver, this US Mint medal can be acquired in silver but is usually cleaned and/or scuffed up. This one is a magnificently toned Proof.

Alan V. Weinberg comments: I firmly believe this Washington medal was only struck /awarded in 2 years - 1859 & 1860. I've never seen another dating outside this 2 yr period and in 1861 the Civil War enveloped PA and the rest of the country.

Alan V. Weinberg comments: Struck in both bronze and silver, this medal also appeals to Washingtonia collectors. Pretty rare in silver, this one likely the finest extant with its wonderful patina and prooflike surfaces.
