1950 U.S. Capital Sesqui., HK-508, MS64 NGC
<B>1950 U.S. Capital Sesquicentennial, HK-508, MS64 NGC.</B></I> Copper-bronze, 41.3 mm. This medal was struck to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the establishment of our Federal Government in Washington, D.C. Stuck at the Philadelphia Mint, this piece was limited 10,000 pieces, although few have survived in high grade. The current example is satiny in appearance and boasts bright, lustrous surfaces with subtle hues of lavender and lime-green imbued throughout. A solitary toned spot at 12 o'clock on the reverse is the only anomaly to justify a mention in this description. An important piece which will garner competitive bidding. Census: 9 in 64, 22 finer (8/07).<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
