Description

George IV, Coronation 1821, AE medal (55.5mm.) by T. Webb and published by John Hardman. Laureate bust l., in high relief, rev. The Imperial crown on crossed swords on plinth inscribed with both Accession and Coronation dates, STAT REGE LEX STAT LEGE REX. (BHM.1092/93; Eimer -), Richly bronzed and Mint State.

Ex. Al Rosen (Toronto, Canada) Col., bt. July 2006. There is some confusion as to whether BHM.1092 & 1093 are one and the same medal. The Accession date on the plinth shows the stop after JAN clearly over a Y. The medal is adapted from the Accession medal (BHM.1013) by an altered legend on the plinth.
