Owner Comments:

This medal just oozes originality. It looks like it was stored in a paper flip and remained untouched since 1859. It was struck in bronze to commemorate the opening of the Nassau Water Works; the first municipal pumping station built to supply clean water to the city of Brooklyn, New York. The surfaces are semi proof like and problem free with a pleasing dark brown patina. The NGC pop in MS-63 is 3/2. The overall rarity is R6 (21-75 known).
