"1813" Lieutenant William Burrows / USS Enterprise vs. HMS Boxer Naval Medal. Julian NA-7. Copper, Bronzed. MS-64 BN (PCGS).
64.8 mm. A pleasing example of this distinctive medal, the only one in the Naval series to not display a bust of the honoree. Mottled light brown with excellent sharpness. Relatively early state of these original dies, cuds on rims filed at time of production, a few minor cracks but no obverse bulge. The surfaces show some verdigris in the recessed areas along with some minor surface buildup, but there are no bad marks or bruises. A desirable early Mint medal.
