<B>1825 Erie Canal Completion, British Medal, PR60 Uncertified.</B></I> BDM VI, 79. 81.3 mm. This large medal is the British counterpart of HK-1, the so-called dollar issued to mark completion and opening of the Erie Canal on October 26, 1825. Produced by Sir Edward Thomason, this medal is similar in design to the dollar-sized version produced in the United States. It is a sharply struck and fully detailed proof with light gray surfaces and reflective fields that are marred only by a smattering of tiny spots on each side.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
