elverno Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 I love the reverse of the George V! You almost never see a variation of design elements on pre-modern medals and I've never seen the legend and crown/wreath arranged horizontally. I know, I know, I need to look at medals other than Napoleonic once in a while... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Very neat medals. I'm more a fan of the Victoria coins than the Georges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottO Posted May 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 hard to say what metal the victoria is, but i dont see the use of base metal for a sliver coloured medal. any idea of identification or value? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
constanius Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 You can see what this one goes for LINK if you check his other listings he has a couple more of the same medal in 'silver coloured' white metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
