Inquire SOLD
1781. B.615. Obverse: Liberty faces left with pole and cap behind her, the inspiration for the 1793 U.S. half cent obverse. Reverse: France defends toddler America from the English lion. The three dates on the medal refer to the Declaration of Independence (4 JUIL. 1776) and the U.S. military victories at Saratoga (17 OCT. 1777) and Yorktown (19 OCT. 1781). From the original dies. The medal was commissioned and distributed by Benjamin Franklin, engraved by Augustin Dupre, and struck at the Paris Mint. The present specimen , so nice, clean and smooth cheek, wonderfully struck. Glorious and undervalued as heck.
