1781 Comte de Milly Lodge of Nine Sisters Copper Jeton
Record status
Individual type · partial
Period
1781
Struck in copper, the piece measures 31 mm in diameter and weighs 125.7 grains. The obverse features a portrait of the Comte de Milly, executed from a specific portrait hub that distinguishes it from other issues within the same series.
The jeton displays a plain edge. Its surfaces are noted for being glossy with a rich chocolate brown patina. The piece is identified as Feuardent-4413a and is distinguished by its unique reverse die, which differs from other known copper and silver varieties of the lodge's jetons. The technical execution involves distinct obverse and reverse die work, reflecting the specific production standards of the Lodge of Nine Sisters' commemorative issues.
