George III Indian Peace Medal. 1814. Smallest size. Adams 14.2. Very Fine to Extremely Fine. Silver. 37.7mm. 529.1 gns. Obverse leaves point to TI. Obverse signed T.WYON.JUN.S. Laureate, mantled bust right of George III (Obverse 2); grand royal Arms (Reverse A). Original, plain loop. Dark gunmetal blue gray on both sides. Very minor handling marks. Obverse seems dished. Although bearing the designer's signature, the obverse in other respects seems identical to the die on the preceding. It seems there are further mysteries to be discovered in this size. Quite rare: Adams' research revealed only nine examples of this size.
Ex A.H. Baldwin & Sons, Ltd. on July 2, 1971.
