Circa 1789 Washington Inaugural Button. Script GW with Linked States border. Baker-1003, var., Cobb-9a, DeWitt GW 1789-9, var. Brass. AU-53 (PCGS).34.1 mm. Original shank intact and straight. Light golden olive brass surfaces on both sides, with just a trace of light, even wear noted on the button face. A very uniform appearance save for one small darker patina spot at RI, and an associated patch of light hairlines where someone apparently tried to wipe it away. A strong and even impression of the design, without the central weakness often seen on this major design type. This is a very rare variant which features the design in mirror image on the reverse of the button, while most examples of Cobb-9 are smooth on the reverse. The Cobb Collection included an example of this type, which we called Very Fine in our January 2003 offering. Otherwise, we have seen only two others offered for sale in recent times, both missing their shanks and with extremely rough surfaces consistent with them being ground finds. This one is quite different in these respects, and is most handsome. It is certainly sharper than the Cobb specimen and is probably a candidate for the finest known of the variety. It is a remarkable button, and will likely be enthusiastically received in this era of increased interest in such pieces.Ex William Spohn Baker Collection, to the Historical Society of Pennsylvania by bequest, November 15, 1897.
