George Washington Commemorative Token (Holed)
This is a circular, brass-toned commemorative token depicting George Washington. The token features a profile bust of George Washington facing right, wearing a wig with a queue tied at the back. Around the top edge, the inscription reads "1789 1ST PRESID'T. U.S.A. 1797", indicating his presidential terms. Along the bottom edge, it states "GEORGE WASHINGTON". The overall design is classic and historical, consistent with typical presidential commemorative pieces. The token appears to be made of a base metal, likely brass or a brass alloy, given its yellowish-gold color and the lack of high-luster typical of more precious metals. A notable feature is a small, circular hole drilled near the top center of the token, positioned between the words "PRESID'T." and "U.S.A.". This hole suggests it was intended to be worn as a pendant, attached to a chain, or used as a keychain. The surface shows signs of age and handling, including a somewhat dulled finish and areas of darkening that suggest a natural patina. There are no obvious deep scratches, dents, or significant damage, but the details, while still legible, are not as crisp as a newly minted item. The craftsmanship is utilitarian, typical of mass-produced commemorative items rather than fine numismatic pieces. Its condition indicates moderate wear consistent with years of existence and possibly light use.
