An Unissued Waterloo Medal 1815, unmounted Specimen, 40mm, toned, very polished, fine (1)
“This Silver Medal was apparently intended for officers who took part in the Battle of Waterloo but was never issued. Later a smaller version was issued. Measuring only 37mm in diameter which depicts the profile of the Prince Regent on the obverse with a smaller bust.”
This medal is rubbed and may have been named on the rim, but shows no signs of being mounted. It is listed in the book Entitled “Historic Medal of Great Britain” No880, as being extremely rare, a copy of this entry is sold with the lot.
