1757 (ca. 1861-1875) King George II Indian Peace Medal. 19th Century Restrike. Bronzed Copper. 45 mm. Julian IP-49. MS-64 BN (NGC).An earlier restrike with the obverse die cracked, yet not as dramatically as seen on some later impressions (see, for example, our Winter 2014 Baltimore Auction, lot 3008). Gorgeous reddish-copper patina blankets both sides, the surfaces of which are smooth and satiny in texture. Sharply defined throughout despite the state of the obverse die.
