Owner Comments:

This medal is a very, if not extremely rare uniface version of an 1882 Pennsylvania bicentennial medal. It shares the same obverse as HK-140, 140A, 141 & 141A, is made of bronze and is holed as made. Its surfaces are much more lustrous than they appear in my photos and exhibit beautiful chocolate brown color. It is not listed in either edition of Hibler & Kappen’s So-Called Dollars an Illustrated Standard Catalog, but was assigned the HK# 140B by NGC when it was submitted for grading. NGC graded this medal MS-65 and to my knowledge it is the only example that has been graded by any grading company.
