- 1808 Washington Benevolent Society Medal With Original Hanger 1808 Washington Benevolent Society medal. Musante GW-94, Baker-327, Julian RF-23. Silver. AU-50 (PCGS). 42.2 mm (without the hanger). 444.1 grains. Deeply toned dark steel gray with some slightly more brilliant areas noted in the recesses around the date, legends and other intricacies. Traces of violet and blue are noted in some places. Though hairlined and quite handled with the many fine scratches and small nicks of a well-used piece, traces of the original prooflike texture are still visible on both sides. Most significantly, the detail is excellent, and the original suspension loop remains intact. A more than respectable example of this scarce early medal by John Reich. Provenance: From the E Pluribus Unum Collection. Earlier from Pine Tree Auction Company's Altman-Hafner Sale, April 1975, lot 805.
