Goldine BRASS (2023) XENIA, OH LEGACY KNIGHTS NUMISMATIC LKNS MEDAL - Trial LKNS #M-23X

NGC MS 69

Struck by Osborne Mint, Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.
No mintmark.
Mintage in Goldine (2023): 3 known.
Called a “golden sample” by Osborne Mint personnel, this trial strike was one of three approval pieces fully struck prior to production for review by the customer. Once approved, one was retained by the Mint for quality control and two were given to the customer for comparison to the production run upon delivery. These samples were approved by LKNS with the stipulation that the Osborne Mint add its mintmark to the reverse; new approval samples were not required for this change prior to production. Aside from possible calibration strikes when setting up the press (which would not be full strikes), no other strikes without the mintmark are known to exist. Final production pieces in Goldine (LKNS catalog# M-23a) are lacquered by the Mint to inhibit tarnishing; the trial strikes are unlacquered.
