- 1783 Georgivs Triumpho Token. Musante GW-54, Baker-7, W-10100. AU-50 (PCGS). A splendid example of the type, this handsome token exhibits predominantly smooth rose-brown surfaces on both sides. Minor roughness over and before Washington's profile is as struck, as is trivial softness of detail in and around the central reverse. Well centered and attractive, the design remains somewhat enigmatic though the fleur-de-lis decorated basket in which Britannia sits is now thought to be that of a hot air balloon, the design perhaps chosen as the first hot air balloon made its ascent in September 1783, the same month in which the Treaty of Paris was signed, making the official end of the Revolutionary War. PCGS# 664. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
