拍品描述： 1779 (ca. late 19th century) Anthony Wayne at Stony Point cast copy. As Betts-565. Copy from an original medal. Lead alloy, 52.0 mm. Very Fine.850.1 grains. Glossy silver gray with finely granular surfaces. Some scattered marks and shallow scrapes, a few bruises on the edge. A decent looking old cast, which is all most collectors can hope to obtain given the rarity of the originals and the U.S. Mint copies. Even replicas like this are scarce, though before the U.S. Mint made copy dies in 1887, this was all any American collector could acquire. The first American auction appearance of an original was in 1911.<strong>To view supplemental information and all items from the Sydney F.
