McLachlan-172, Breton-106. 51mm. 80.1. MOSES BERNSTEIN engraved on edge. Signed J. MOORE. As last, but about 33% heavier and struck on a thicker planchet that measures 5.8mm. According to The History of the High School of Montreal, a Moses Bernstein attended that school in 1903. This example is bright silver with lightly hairlined surfaces. Eye appeal remains good. The rarity of this named silver school medal should not be underestimated.
From the Michael Joffre Collection of Canadian Historical Medals.
