Circa 1822 Governor Isaac Shelby. Battle of the Thames Medal. Julian-MI-21. White Metal. Specimen-62 PCGS.

65 mm. Dies by Moritz Furst. A lovely medal for the assigned grade, with frosted high-relief obverse details and an equally frosty reverse battle scene. Pale silver-gray throughout with reflective fields that whisper of pale sky-blue. Some faint hairlining accounts for the grade, as no other marks of any sort can be found on the attractive surfaces. Sharply struck with virtually every tiny detail present in Furst’s amazing die work. A beautiful medallic tribute to an important American victory in the War of 1812. This is the only example of J-MI-21 certified by PCGS.
PCGS Population: 1; no others at any level.
