Charles II silver "British Colonization" Medal 1670 MS63 NGC, Eimer-245, MI-546/203, Betts-44. 41mm. By J. Roettier. Among the finest examples of this popular globe-themed medal that we have seen, displaying sharp detail through the intricate design and attractive multi-hued original tone that contributes to its overall splendid appearance. While realizations for this medal in silver have shown great variance over time, we note an AU-graded example that set the high water mark of $7,050 in our 2013 sale of the John W. Adams collection.
