Struck in white metal with a plain edge. 38 mm. Obv: Left-facing three-quarters bust of Garfield with J. A. GARFIELD / PRESIDENT U.S. surrounding at the rim. Rev: "GOD REIGNS / AND THE GOVERNMENT / AT WASHINGTON / STILL LIVES" at the center with the All Seeing Eye above and an Ouroboros below (symbolizing the cycle of birth and death). BORN NOV. 19, 1831 appears at the upper rim and DIED SEP. 19, 1881 at the lower. Mostly untoned with just a hint of silvery-gray patina here and there.
While rarity data for this piece is unknown to me, I can find only one other being sold in the last decade or so, that being one graded MS-63 (not DPL as this one is) which sold on ebay in September 2020 for $355.
