George III gilt bronze "Failed Assassination" Medal 1800 MS62 NGC, BHM-483, Eimer-916. 48mm. By C.H. Küchler. Obv. Garlanded, draped, and armored bust left. Rev. Smoke and flames rising from altar, eye above. Attractively styled with glossy, honeyed surfaces that reveal the quality of the gilding process.
