Undated Medal Washington Success Medal, Small Size, Plain Edge, MS62 PCGS. Baker-267A, DeWitt-GW-1792-4, W-10877, Musante GW-44, R.5. Brass, 20 mm, plain edge. A shimmering olive-brown example, undisturbed aside from an unobtrusive pinscratch distant from the focal points at 5 o'clock. A retained lamination (as made) is noted beneath the second T in STATES. Unlike most pieces seen, the eye in the center on the reverse is sufficiently struck to recognize the motif. The Small Size Success Medal is scarcer than its Large Size counterpart. Listed on page 86 of the 2018 Guide Book.
