- 1965 United States Assay Commission Medal. Bronze. 57 mm. By Frank Gasparro. JK AC-109a. Rarity-7. MS-65 (NGC). Splendid golden-tan surfaces display just a trace of light mottling in the lower left obverse field. The appearance is smooth and inviting, with both sides free of detracting handling marks. Fully struck. A rare and popular issue, the 1965 Assay Commission medal features an adaptation of John Ward Dunsmore's historically fictitious painting Washington Inspecting the First Money Coined by the United States. The estimated mintage of 50 medals for this issue includes 22 examples for the commissioners, plus perhaps as many as 28 additional pieces produced for distribution to Mint officials and others. Provenance: From the Richard Jewell Collection. Earlier from Presidential Coin & Antique Co., Inc.'s Auction 74, December 2005, lot 531. Lot tag and collector tag with attribution notation included.
