1858. Gold. Diameter 59mm, 97.5 grams. The finest Gem Proof of the surprisingly 5-6 specimens in gold I've seen/owned, including a polished, thoroughly worn (Fine?), rim-mounted filigree jewelry pendant. So worn & beat-up in fact that it appears to me that an awarded sailor had it mounted and worn around his neck during his maritime travels. In original case.
