Owner Comments:

This is a fabulous top pop 2/0 example of a bronze Crystal Palace SCD. It is very well struck, with all design details sharp & crisp. The surfaces, especially the obverse, are clean and are a pleasing dark chocolate hue with very nice glossy luster. The bronze Crystal Palace medals are much rarer than the white metal pieces. According to the NGC census, they have only graded a total of 4 bronze examples compared to 67 of those made of white metal. The overall rarity is R8 (5-10 known).
