COMMEMORATIVE MEDALS, BRITISH HISTORICAL MEDALS, Lord Nelson (1758-1805), Brass Roundel with central medallic portrait, c.1805, by M & P, uniformed bust left, ADMIRAL LORD NELSON – BORN 29 SEPR 1758, narrow Greek key border, 71mm (BHM 580 var; MH 523), small piercings top and bottom, very fine; another, the medallic portrait only, 53mm, pierced through OR of LORD and above, very fine. (2)
First seemingly adapted from a box-lid, the second a cliché probably intended for framing. Brown was confused by M & P and whilst they are not attributed in the description of BHM 580 he elsewhere erroneously suggests the initials stand for N Marchant and L Pingo.
Estimate: £120-160
