Description
'1783' Treaty of Paris Medal, Fine 15
Continental Dollar Reverse, Betts-614
"1783" Continental Dollar Peace Medal Fine 15 NGC. Crosby Page
370, Betts-614, High R.6. White metal, 39 mm. This crude issue
commemorates the Treaty of Paris that confirmed American
independence. The obverse depicts a peaceful encounter between a
standing Indian and a seated Britannia, with a London landscape in
the background. The reverse imitates the Continental dollar
reverse. Described as "very rare" by Betts, though more examples
have emerged since his day. The medal is listed in the 2007 edition
of 100 Greatest American Medals and Tokens. Likely carried
as a pocket piece, this silver-gray example shows even wear. The
design is apparent and the legends are readable. There are no
relevant marks or verdigris spots.From The Donald G. Partrick Collection.
