Prussia. Friedrich Wilhelm III silver "Battle of Waterloo" Medal 1815-Dated MS61 NGC, Bramsen-1641, Julius-3342, Eimer-1073, 36.7mm. By G. Götze and D.F. Loos. Obv. Two busts facing one another, wreath surrounding. Rev. Thirteen lines text. Commemorating the victory of the Seventh Coalition, led by Blücher and Wellington, over Napoleon. Dappled toning lays over fields of lavender with golden hues embellishing the peripheries, particularly on the obverse. Evidence of hairlines likely limits the assigned grade, but this remains an attractive piece nonetheless. From the Abbeygate Collection of British Medals
