1861 Brown’s Equestrian Statue medal by George H. Lovett. Musante GW-312, Baker-317B. White Metal. MS-62 (PCGS).

50.3 mm. 662.0 grains. A very attractive example with mostly just mild hairlines, tiny pesting flecks and a single small reverse field nick. The overall eye appeal is excellent for a lightly handled white metal impression, with strong prooflike character in the fields and frosty, somewhat more deeply toned devices. Though white metal impressions of the medals of this vintage are often thought of as the most available, this is still rather rare. We have only three in our online archives and this composition was also missing from the landmark Baker Collection.

From the E Pluribus Unum Collection. Previously purchased from Bowers and Merena, as part of a set of three. Likely from the September 1992 Witham and Sansoucy Sale, Lot 2180.
