https://www.ebay.com/itm/3048620036...=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 I was the successful bidder for this small collection. I will not it is only 41 medals and coins since the medal militaire is in two pieces personal although low grade a damaged I saw some really interesting pieces here 1. a 12 D and 2 Sol royal revolutionary french coins from the 1 year and 18 days of the constitutional monarchy 2. the Scottish Copper from 1678 3. The Caroline of Brunswick death medal (it holed but meh) one of the first great British royal scandals 4. the George III Penny 5. the Fishermen Cham I think even accounting for the damage and the low grade I made out great The Medal Militaire is likely in the $15-$20 range and their is another $10 in silver melt which means i paid about a buck each for the other coins
You did just fine. The important thing is that you are happy with your purchase! There are some cool coins there.
The Scottish one was the one that jumped out at me. The 1860 penny has potential interest depending on the variety.
Better pics of some of the items 1773 Duke of Gloucester Sentiment Magazines medal nice detail but ugly black toning 2 sol 1792/ 4 of Liberty French Revolutionary issue Caroline of Brunswick death medal Hosterman and Etter half penny token Louis XIV ? 6 Denair KM400 ? Will add more tomorrow

I have a Caroline death medal on my Holey Coin Hat, but I like that type you have much more, with its willows and urn. Mine just has a portrait on one side and text on the other, as I recall. Mine is copper. I can't tell what metal yours is? Edit: no, mine is Charlotte, George III's, wife, not Caroline/George IV. Never mind. Still, I like the design on yours more.
The Caroline medal is brass. Caroline is interesting because its the first modern royal scandal as much of the commons to Caroline's side in his attempts to Divorce her (He also had her locked out of his coronation) . Overall I'm very happy at what I paid
