Spanish Colonial Ferdinand VII bronze Ecclesiastical Council Medal 1814 MS63+ Brown NGC, Grove-F-23c. A rare and historically interesting medal, issued shortly after Ferdinand's captivity and release by Napoleon from France, where he had been held prisoner for six years. Exhibiting the bold neoclassical imagery immensely popular during this time period, a gorgeous choice Mint State medal with much reflectivity in the sleek brown surfaces, with hints of vibrant mint luster in recesses. A must-have for collectors of the Mexican, Spanish or Napoleonic medal series.
