Circa 1683 Charles II Presentation Medal, AU55
MI-595-277, Morin Figure 5, Struck in Silver
Undated (Circa 1683) Great Britain Charles II Presentation
Medal, MI-595-277, Silver, AU55 NGC. Eimer-267. 53mm. Signed by
J. Roettiers (his initial R appears on the bust truncation). The
John J. Ford Jr. Collection, Part XVI included six examples of the
1683 Charles II Presentation medal in silver as well as two gilt
pieces. At that time, cataloger Michael Hodder explained that while
no documentary evidence exists proving these were distributed in
North America, "Mr. Ford thought highly enough of the medal in a
presentation context to have collected several examples of it.
Chris Schenkel, who was a student of Ford's when it came to Indian
medals, also included a specimen in his own collection." A gilt
example formed part of W.W.C. Wilson's collection (Wayte Raymond,
11/1925), lot 924. Wear and contact marks are trivial. This Choice
AU representative is attractively toned.Ex: A.H. Baldwin; John J. Ford Jr. (10/29/1982); Donald G. Partrick.
