- 1876 United States Assay Commission Medal. By William Barber. Musante GW-869, Baker-347, Julian AC-15. Silver. MS-64 (NGC). Pale steel and blue mottling over medium to deep gray silver surfaces. A few faint hairlines are noted in the prooflike fields, but the overall eye appeal is quite pleasing. A rare medal in any metal, but particularly so in silver. In fact, of the dozen appearances of an 1876 Assay medal in our online archives, this is the lone example in silver, having been sold by us in 2014. Ernie Keusch never acquired this medal in silver and Jack Collins considered this one a prize. Provenance: From the E Pluribus Unum Collection. Earlier from Jack Collins; our (Coin Galleries') sale of the Jack Collins Collection, Part II, lot 2014; our (Stack's) sale of September 1998, lot 131; our sale of the Charles A. Wharton Collection, March 2014, lot 2212.
