George III Indian Peace Medal. Undated. Middle size. Second reverse. Adams 8.2; census specimen 13. Poor. Pewter. Solid. Single piece cast construction. 59.8mm. 661.9 gns. Unsigned dies. Armored bust right of George III (Obverse 1); royal Arms with Hannoverian charge (Reverse B). No loop. Holed twice. Damaged. ''AD 1801'' scratched below bust on obverse (clearly, the date of the reverse armorial type change). Not a real Indian medal but included in Mr. Ford's holdings as an older study piece with a decent provenance and listed here in deference.
