Description
This Washington Success medal in the small size with reeded edge and silvered finish combines the portable small format with the reeded edge treatment. The reeded edge on the small version creates a more finished, coin-like feel compared to the plain edge variant (PCGS #789). Collecting the complete set of Washington Success medals — large and small, plain and reeded edge, in various surface treatments — represents a challenging but achievable specialty within the Washington token field. Medal iconography provides insight into how Americans have understood and represented their history, with evolving artistic conventions reflecting changing cultural values and aesthetic preferences across different eras. The silvered finish on this small reeded-edge version provides an attractive silver-toned appearance at modest cost.
