“1783” (circa 1820) Washington Draped Bust Copper. Large Military Bust. Musante GW-109, Baker-4, Breen-1203, Vlack 7-E. Copper. Plain edge. AU Details--Rim Damage (PCGS). 28.8 mm. 110.6 grains. Attractive rich brown surfaces are glossy, and the struck surfaces are mostly free of handling marks, aside from a couple of small digs near the rims. However, this was struck without a collar, giving the piece broad, thick and uneven rims that have taken a little abuse. About four notable rim bumps mar the otherwise lovely aesthetic. Though there is some old rim damage, this is still a very visually interesting and rare piece, with excellent details throughout. From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Purchased from Bill Murray, May 1993.
