Representative Images

in Early American Medals (currently in collection)

1808. Silver. Diameter 68mm, 38.9 grams. Unique and hand-engraved. Visibly impressive size and unusual captivating obv and rev images. Consigned to a Stack's foreign coin auction (I'm lucky I spotted it) straight out of Europe. No prior auction or collection history. Finely reeded edge. An 1808 Amsterdam / New York ("New Amsterdam")Dutch/American medal. Certainly not in any other collection and probably made for the Captain of the Adelhaide (or his wife or sponsoring company). Reeded edge.
