Graded as a Deep Mirror Prooflike. This lot includes the original circular cardboard holder of issue in pink which is slightly tattered on the side, but complete. Attractive medal struck by Wilhelm Mayer of Stuttgart, Germany and sold by the Heeren Bros., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Signed W.M. below the bust. Also comes in 55mm, and 90mm sizes, and smaller 28mm versions not cataloged here. Compare to George Morgan’s portrait of Liberty on the silver dollar. The authors believe these were all struck as proofs. All varieties have what appears to be a dropped O on the reverse above 400th. Reported in Silver but not confirmed. Columbus landing scene on the reverse. Struck in Aluminum.
