1799 (ca. 1860) Bushnell Series Medal. Fourth Obverse - First Reverse. Copper. 29 mm. Musante GW-380, Baker-151A. MS-66 BN (PCGS).This breathtakingly beautiful Gem reveals iridescent undertones of powder blue and salmon pink as the surfaces dip into a light. Otherwise warmly patinated in golden-brown, both sides also offer razor sharp striking detail and overall pristine-looking surfaces. The dies for this type were prepared by George Hampden Lovett, the bust punch attributed to Charles Cushing Wright. A desirable Washington Birth and Death medal at an outstanding level of preservation.
