1690 Quebec Preserved Medal. Betts-73. Bronze. VF-35 (PCGS).

1690 Quebec Preserved Medal. Betts-73. Bronze. VF-35 (PCGS). 41.1 mm. Handsome glossy orange-brown surfaces with warmer olive-copper peripheral highlights. Evenly worn but never abused. The hallmark of the Betts-73 die pairing is the star at the end of the obverse legend, following CHRISTIANISSIMUS. This is a more affordable, yet highly attractive example of the type.
