 1817 James Madison Presidential Medal. J.PR.3, N.43. White metal. 63.9 mm. 5.4 - 5.7 mm. thick. By Moritz Furst (obverse). Choice Uncirculated. A third, on an even thicker flan than the second. This example is attractively toned in silver gray and iridescent blue and rose shades. The color is so reminiscent of silver that the piece's rim has been ground in one place to test the metal. The surfaces are also very bright and semi-reflective.
Ex Wayte Raymond Estate.
