Owner Comments:

Musante-1144; Douglas-40B; Collin-422. Struck in silvered copper. 50mm round; 53mm tip to tip. High relief design. Maker mark on the reverse reads C. G. Braxmar / 36 Cortlandt St. / New York. Original toning with bluish-gray hints. Very nice for the assigned grade as the design side is virtually as-made. Would appear the assigned grade was for a few widely scattered points of contact on the non-design side. The design side definitely deserves a higher grade. Encased in an oversized 4" X 5.5" PCGS holder

The only piece certified at either grading service.
