1741 Admiral Vernon Medal. Adams-Chao CAv 3-D. Rarity-6. Pinchbeck, 38.4 mm. MS-63 (PCGS). 231.4 grains. Another very high grade Vernon at Cartagena medal. Rich golden tan, glossy and mellowed from full lustrous bloom but supremely well preserved. A few very shallow scratches are noted left of the top of the anchor, but this piece is otherwise choice. The reverse shows a substantial die crack through the exergue. One of the prettiest examples of this type we can recall, fit for a high end cabinet. PCGS# 779499. <strong>To view supplemental information and all items from the Sydney F.
