Description
This is a HUGE 76 mm (3 inches) in diameter, 266-gram (9.4 oz - 8.58 Troy Oz) SILVER 1978 Capitol Historical Society Medal commemorating three events of 1777-1778: The adoption of the Articles of Confederation at York, Pennsylvania (November 1777); Winter at Valley Forge 1777-78; and the 200th anniversary of the Adoption of the first “Stars and Stripes Flag.” The medal was produced by the US Mint and sculpted by Chief Sculptor-Engraver Frank Gasparro. It is in CHOICE MINT condition, in the CASE and BOX of issue with the 24-page booklet/insert. This is an EXTREMELY RARE medal, only 1,000 were struck and MANY were melted one to two years later during the “great melt” when silver reached $50.00 per ounce. I have NEVER seen a silver version offered on eBay in the last five years. Also, it is the only CHS medal to be produced by the US Mint, all of the others in the series were produced by the Medallic Art Company. The CASED/Boxed medal weighs 481 grams (1 POUND, 0.9 oz). I will combine postage for winning bidders of multiple items. Look at my other auctions for more Medals. Any questions?
