1864 George McClellan Medal. DeWitt-GMcC 1864-14. Silver. 31 mm. MS-65 (NGC).Lovely toning in a blend of olive-gray and salmon pink greets the viewer from both sides of this wonderfully original Gem. Prooflike in finish with a razor sharp strike and expertly preserved surfaces. This type is rare in silver, especially when not pierced for suspension, as here.Ex Eric P.
