1898 National Conference of Charities and Correction Medal. Bronze. 76.1 mm. By Victor David Brenner. Miller-12, Smedley-27. About Uncirculated. This is one of the last medal designs Brenner cut directly into steel dies, with 253 bronze examples struck, as follows: 235 for presentation to conference members and contributors, and 18 additional examples for sale to ANS members. Attractive coloration with glowing mint red peeking out in some areas of the otherwise light olive brown patina. Just the slightest of cabinet friction is noted, along with a couple light edge bumps. From the Richard Jewell Collection.
