- "1778-1779" (ca. 1780) Rhode Island Ship Medal. Betts-562, W-1740. Wreath Below Ship. Brass. AU-53 (PCGS).
Bright antique gold patina dominates the in hand appearance, both sides with minimal traces of slightly deeper copper-gray here and there around the peripheries. Microscopic pitting and a few well scattered carbon flecks are easily overlooked, one's eye instead drawn toward the bold to sharp detail evident on virtually all major design elements. An impressive high grade example of the type that is sure to please the discerning numismatist.
Provenance: From the Collection of Larry L. Terrell. Acquired from Early American Numismatics, February 1993.
PCGS# 587.
