1739 Admiral Vernon Medal, Porto Bello, AU58 NGC. Betts-Unlisted, Adams PBvi 20-GG, R.6. Dark chocolate-brown color appears throughout on this splendid near-Mint specimen. A beautifully preserved example of this more intricate design, this piece reveals only the faintest hint of wear. A small die break is present near 1 o'clock on the reverse, as is known for this variety. Although a tiny amount of debris appears at portions of the legends on both sides, it is scarcely noticeable on this wonderful example. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
