MORE BASHLOW PRODUCTIONS

To add to the multipart article on Bashlow, here are a few comments/pictures of items that were referred to.

 

 

1 – Obverse & Reverses of some of the Confederate Cents which Bashlow produced in a variety of metals. Shown is copper & goldine, in their original wrappers with the reverse notation of the actual metal contents.

 

 

2 – Also depicted is a (front & back) CSA Cent ingot brick made and numbered (this one shown is # 43 which we sold 5 or 10 years ago) by A. Frank of Philadelphia.

 

3 – In the ‘Pope We Hope' Gold medal. Bashlow would make 3 copies of the various productions. One to be sold, another for his personal collection and the last to the Smithsonian.

The gold example of the CSA Cent was sold by Heritage for Bunny Laties 11 years ago for about $21,000 with a write-up by his brother David, about this 1961 re-strike."

We often have a few Bashlow items at our ‘# 1 Money Man' table during Winter FUN.
