- 1887 International Medical Congress Medal. Bronze. 76 mm. Musante GW-1038, Baker F-378. Specimen-65 BN (PCGS). Choice reflective mahogany-brown fields with the slightest hint of multicolored iridescent toning enhancing the appeal. Unlisted in Julian, but very likely a U.S. Mint medal, as it is unlikely that a medal of this size and quality -- and also engraved by Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint Charles E. Barber -- could have been produced anywhere else in this country at that time. Substantial in size, and impressively styled, the obverse portrait is after the famous Houdon Bust, which is considered the finest likeness of Washington ever produced.
