    Much like the medall Pistrucci did in 1820 for George IV.

    Nice to see that price on a lightly circulated piece.image

    Here is some particular info that the dealer did not list.


    1838 silver Coronation medal of Queen Victoria. Fearon-289.1, designed by
    Pistrucci, 37 mm diameter, the official RM issue, one of only 2209 made.

    These specimens are full proof manufacture and were struck in extremely high relief.

    Thickness is close to 4mm. Mine is in a Capitol holder as it will not fit anything else.
