1763 Treaty of Hubertusburg Medal. Betts-446. Silver. AU-58 (PCGS). 44.5 mm. Endearing near-Mint quality for this popular peace medal from the American colonial era. Both sides are richly toned in dominant pewter-gray patina with warm olive-russet highlights enhancing the protected areas along the borders and around the design elements, especially on the obverse. Sharply struck with a satin to modestly semi-reflective finish. As the Seven Years War (1756 to 1763) drew to an end, the Treaty of Paris closed the tensions that defined the American theater of conflict (known in the colonies as the French and Indian War), while the Treaty of Hubertusburg wrapped up loose ends among the European combatants soon thereafter.
