Watch List notes:

Great Britain (struck by Ralph Heaton & Sons in Birmingham), bronze medal, dated 1874, Enrique Cortes & Co Limited, NGC MS 64 Brown. 38 mm Obverse with bust of Liberty at center, HEATON just below, ENRIQUE CORTES & Co LIMITED above and LONDON below, reverse with Heaton Mint building, RALPH HEATON AND SONS / COINERS above and TO THE BRITISH FRENCH / ITALIAN & OTHER / GOVERNMENTS and THE MINT BIRMINGHAM below, lettered edge reading DIOS LEI LIBERTAD. Enrique Cortes & Co Limited was a trading company that conducted business often in South America, particularly in Venezuela and Colombia. The medal draws upon that connection with the same Liberty bust as that found on the Heaton-produced Venezuelan 1 centavo of 1852 and the edge lettering the same as that found on Colombian coinage of the 1860s and 1870s. Brown color with hints of original red luster. NGC #3504368-013.
