Owner Comments:

THERE ARE ONLY (13) LISTED OF THIS TYPE IN THE NGC CENSUS AS OF 8/2023. ALSO CATALOGUED AS BAKER R-456A. IT APPEARS THAT MS 61 IS QUITE AN UNDERGRADE FOR THIS EXAMPLE. IT IS VERY CLEAN AND FREE OF ISSUES.

JEFF SHEVLIN HAD A RAW "GEM BU" EXAMPLE LISTED IN HIS JULY 2021 FIXED PRICE LIST FOR $495.00.

KAGIN'S AUCTIONS SOLD AN NGC GRADED MS 62 FOR $780.00.

HERITAGE AUCTIONS SOLD A PCGS GRADED MS 62 EXAMPLE FOR $408.00.

WASHINGTON'S HEADQUARTERS AT NEWBURGH, NY; PROCLAMATION OF PEACE, DISBANDMENT OF ARMY CENTENNIALS 1883.

THIS SO-CALLED DOLLAR TYPE IS MADE IN BRONZE (HK-134) AND WHITE METAL (HK-135). THE BRONZE TYPE IS MUCH RARER THAN THE WHITE METAL TYPE IN THE NGC CENSUS (13 BRONZES VS. 36 WHITE METALS AS OF 8/2023).
