Description

An undated Washington "Success" medal of the small size (approximately 28mm) with a plain edge. The small Success Medal features the same general design as the large version but on a more compact planchet. The obverse bears Washington's bust with SUCCESS TO THE UNITED STATES, and the reverse shows an eagle. The smaller size was intended for broader circulation or as a more affordable keepsake.
