(1800) MEDAL Washington Funeral Urn, White Metal -- Rim Damage -- Genuine PCGS. VF Details. Baker-166C, Fuld 4-D, Musante GW-70F. Die varieties of Jacob Perkins' Funeral Urn medals were identified by George Fuld during the 1960s. The "D" reverse has no periods in US northwest of the urn. The "4" obverse shows only minor positional differences from other marriages. Virtually all known examples are holed near 12 o'clock, as issued to wear at Washington's Boston civic funeral procession, held on his birthday anniversary in 1800. This microgranular slate-gray representative is unblemished except for marks near the obverse rim at 9 o'clock, and on the reverse rim opposite at 3 o'clock.
