Battle of Trafalgar. Pewter Medal (45mm, 22.92 g, 12h). By an uncertain medallist. Dated 21 October 1805, though struck 20th century (?). 21 October 1805, uniformed bust facing slightly left, wearing bicorn with cockade; below, Admiral Lord Nelson / Three-quarter view of the H.M.S. Victory: HMS Victory below. Hardy 40; BHM –; Eimer –. Pierced, reverse deposits. EF. Very rare, none in CoinArchives.

From the J. Eric Engstrom Collection.

Hardy notes that this medal is struck, but the present example depicts a clear seam along the edge and has a hollow ring to it. The style appears to be fairly modern, 1950s or later, at least in the eye of this cataloger.
