Description

GREAT BRITAIN. Treaty of St. Vincent Silver Medal, 1773. ABOUT UNCIRCULATED.
Diameter: 54 mm; Weight: 60.80 gms. Obverse: Armored bust of George III right; Reverse: Britannia left holding palm branch, before her Carib islander placing arms at her feet. An impressive, and quite SCARCE medal, this piece commemorates the defeat of the Carib Natives in the First Carib War. The details are sharp and well applied, especially when considering this as a cast issue. Some light handling and friction is noticed, along with a few minor edge dings, though these faults are minor and not especially pronounced.
Estimate: $1500.00- $3000.00
