46mm. 57.7 grams. Pointing hand and BRONZE on edge. Signed I. HARDY F. Struck at the Paris Mint between 1845 and 1860. This is a scarce medal featuring the portrait and arms of Francois Christopher de Levi, duc d’Ampville, who served as the ninth Viceroy of New France from 1644 to 1660. Seldom offered in any condition, this one exhibits unmarked deep brown surfaces with glossy fields and fully struck devices. An exceptional example. Stack’s offered a later restrike in 2016 (MS65 Red Brown NGC) that realized $793.13 USD.
