成交

A wholly original, thoroughly appealing example that is at the threshold of an even higher grade. Both sides exhibit delightful golden-brown patina in the fields with bolder reddish-copper patina outlining the devices. The aforementioned toning further enhances already sharp high relief definition to the design elements; even the highest point of Libertys portrait in the center of the obverse is fully rounded with crisp delineation between the individual hair strands. Overall smooth and supremely attractive, this handsome specimen is sure to please even the most discerning collector.Although this piece has been certified by PCGS, and that is meaningful, in the opinion of your cataloger (QDB) it at least is a very high end MS-63. Out of the holder I believe many would grade it higher. By the way, all Libertas Americana medals, including this one, were struck as <em>Proofs</em>, not with lustrous or circulation strike finish. Nomenclature has not been standardized by the certification services.The present sale notwithstanding, original Libertas Americana medals are elusive in todays market, as most survivors are tightly held in long-standing collections. The bronze impressions are more numerous than their silver counterparts, but with only 100 to 125 examples believed extant such pieces are scarce in an absolute sense. Whether acquired on its own or as a companion to the silver original offered above, this premium quality example would serve as a focal point in even the finest cabinet.,,,
