- (1766) William Pitt Medal. Betts-517. Bronze or Brass, 39.3 mm. EF-45 (PCGS). 320.5 grains. Kraljevich 4-D. Another medal struck in the aftermath of the Stamp Act Crisis, this one signed IW under the bust truncation as an apparent contemporary bootleg of Pitt's work. Olive brown with brassy high points and finely granular surfaces. Quite attractive for the grade. This variety is considerably rarer than the Pingo-signed originals. Provenance: From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier from Simmons Gallery (London), via eBay, April 2005. To view supplemental information and all items from the Sydney F. Martin Collection, click here. PCGS# 528411.
