1783 Treaty of Paris Medal. White Metal, without Copper Plug. 43 mm. Betts-610, Eimer-804, BHM-255, Van Loon-592. AU-55 (PCGS).Delightful pearl gray surfaces reveal modestly semi-prooflike fields and iridescent undertones of champagne-pink and pale gold as the medal dips into a light. Boldly to sharply defined throughout, close inspection with a loupe reveals evidence of double striking at the lower reverse border. A few carbon spots on the obverse are noted. This is one of the most famous medals celebrating the Treaty of Paris, which officially recognized the end of the American Revolutionary War.
