constanius Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 Reverse has what appears to be a planchet defect. Still for a very rare brass 25mm BHM# 1112 it is it pretty nice condition. Most of these small brass medalets for Geo's Coro. are C. N. or R. to have a RR. in this condition is a bonus. Fauver attributes this to Thomas Kettle : Geo IV 1821-3b R(reeded edge) R-8 (5 to 10 known). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elverno Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 Wow, that could have been struck yesterday! The planchet flaw is unfortunate but not really that bad in my opinion. Not many objects survive 188 years in that condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
constanius Posted September 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Another example but this is gilded copper, not listed as such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
