Saw this link today on eBay and was looking at the medal. Cool high-grade copper ... but would a genuine Queen Victoria medal have "Britain" misspelled on the lower reverse as "Britian"?
I know there were lots of local and national medals of what must have been an enormous observance at the time ... but still, I don't have the enormous British Historical Medals references (the ones I saw years ago at Heritage, anyway, were enormous and two volumes) to look this up. I do have the Christopher Eimer British Commemorative Medals, but it is not listed there. A couple of other characteristics of the medal seem a bit "off" to me as well, but I am not expert in these things.
Any info, y'all?
Kind regards,
George

Well, "genuine" does not exclude a lot - not a Royal Mint product, so it is all possible.
Well, just Love coins, period.
