(1797) Medal Baker-71 Silver, J-PR-1 Sansom Medal-1807 Original SP62 认证号34175956, PCGS号546537

Struck in early 1807, but dated 1797. Only a handful of original silver specimens remain of this important medal struck at the early U.S. Mint for jeweler Joseph Sansom. An example of this medal was presented to Thomas Jefferson, prompting him to press the mint to hire its engraver, John Reich, who would go on to design the Classic Head and Capped Bust coinage.
