- 1762 Europe Hopes for Peace Medal. Betts-442. Silver. Specimen-64 (PCGS). 44.5 mm. A particularly choice example of this attractive medal by Johann Georg Holtzhey, struck after the principal military operations of the Seven Years War had ended in Europe and America. Pale blue and violet highlights enliven deeply reflective and lustrous fields. Choice on both sides, with no defects more significant than a couple of minor contact points and scattered trivial hairlines. An exemplary specimen, far finer than usually seen for the issue. Provenance: From the E Pluribus Unum Collection. Earlier from our (Bowers and Merena's) Connecticut Historical Society and M. Vernon Sheldon Collections sale, April 1983, lot 2499. PCGS# 827389.
