Seeking information on washington funeral medal

I have a dime size silver or pewter (looks more silver & weight is that of silver) Washington Funeral Medal. The front shows George Washington and the reverse has a wreath with "born 1732" and "died 1799" in it. The coin has a small hole in the top (i assume for hanging on a bracelet or neckless) and is in VF condition. If anyone has any information it would be appreciated. Thanks Steve

    There are a lot of different varieties. I don't know very much about them, though. I wonder if my Rulau encyclopedia lists them. Hmm.

    A holed VF sounds lovely to me and I would enjoy having such a piece on my Holey Coin Vest. But I believe those ain't cheap. I probably couldn't afford one.

    Sound interesting. Post some pics if you can.
