Medals
Reference:6087 King Charles I: Royal Family, 1635
Half-length draped figures of Charles I and Henrietta Maria.
Hal-length draped figures of Prince Charles, Prince James and Princess Mary.
[By Nichols Briot].
Silver. 31 mm.
Condition: Extremely Fine
Notes:
An extremely rare medal, ex. Helen Farquhar collection (Glendinings, 25 April 1955, Lot 215).
A die flaw is visible on the reverse side, and the portrait of Princess Mary has an area of weakness in the striking. Attractive none the less with elements of toning.
