Description
1762 Peace of Europe Medal. Betts-442. Silver, 45 mm. MS-61 (PCGS).

Struck from dies by Johann Georg Holtzhey to mark the resumption of European commerce after the end of hostilities on the Continent. The iconic native princess representing America lifts Fame to place an emblem of peace atop the stand of arms on the obverse. This medal is only seen in silver, usually in this kind of quality.
From the Richard Margolis Collection. Earlier from A. Hess AG's (Zurich) sale of January 1991, lot 249.
