Item Description
Smallest piece is 5/8” while the largest are 2-5/8”. Those in row two are marked “Sterling” on the reverse while those in row three are all marked on the reverse “Sterling Top.” Those in the first three rows depict one or two Indians as well as one or several ships. First has a few dots of enamel off the center of the scene and a tiny chip off the surrounding blue enamel circle. Still displays beautifully. In row two, first item has 3/8” flake of red enamel off the left but not quite down to the underlying metal. Next item in this row has restoration to the blue enamel oval surrounding the beautiful center scene. Restoration is somewhat dull in color although the main center piece is near perfect. First item in row three is missing small bits of enamel from center scene with slight damage on the rim edge at right. Next in row three is perfect. Last in row three has perfect front but missing bar pin from back. In row four depicted are “Mines and Metallurgy Building.” Tiny crack at lower right but very minor. Second in row four shows “Pocahontas.” This is perfect. Last in row four is from “Connecticut/Jamestown Ter-Centennial.” Tiny wear on close inspection but enamel is intact. Nine high quality and scarce pieces.
