1880 Baltimore 150th anniversary medal

By design, this is a common piece, but it usually appears in brass, holed, and cruddy to boot. This one is a thick broze proof, with a strongly double-struck reverse and a bonus rim-to-rim die crack.

The brass version is listed as Rulau Md-Ba 35. The bronze version doesn't seem to be listed.

And the toning is decent, too...

I like it very much, very pretty colors are a bonus.


edited to add:, Die cracks are very cool!!
