1739 Admiral Vernon Medal, Porto Bello, VF30 NGC. Betts-203, Adams PBv 32-EE, R.6. A wonderful example, this piece demonstrates significantly more eye appeal than the grade may imply, as the majority of the design elements on the obverse in particular remain strong, with the wear concentrated on the highest portions of the devices. Among the diagnostics for this variety is a die injury at the T of PORTO. Light brown and brass shades add to the attractiveness of this specimen. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
