MARTINIQUE. Napoleon III/Construction of Fort-de-France Harbor Bronze Medal, 1860. Paris Mint. NGC MS-61 Brown.
By E. A. Oudine. Diameter: 51mm. Obverse: Laureate head left; Reverse: Legend in 16 lines. Outside of a very subtle rim bruise near 11 o'clock on the reverse, this immensely impressive medal offers charming brown surfaces, with some deeper hues around the devices. A fairly SCARCE and interesting work pertaining to France's overseas territory of Martinique and her capital city of Fort-de-France.
Ex: Isaac Rudman Collection.
Estimate: $200 - $400
