COMMEMORATIVE MEDALS, BRITISH HISTORICAL MEDALS, Charles I, Memorial, Silver Medal, 1649, bust of king right, wearing armour and medal on riband, POPVLE MEV QVID EFCI TBI, 1649, CAROLYS REX, rev head of Medusa, concentric circles divided by flaming sword, thunderbolt and arms, BLASFEMANT NECANT SPERVNT DEVM REGEM LEGEM CONCILIABVLVM ANCLIAE, 54mm (MI i 349/208). Good very fine, finely cast and chased, likely to be a later copy.
This unusual piece differs in many respects from the example recorded in the major sources. The bust differs, there is no stippling in the field and many words are misspelt. For a similar example cast in bronze see the Michael Hall Collection, Baldwin's Auction 64, lot 644, May 2010.

Estimate: £200-300
