Bronze medallion struck as part of the victory series for Admiral Vernon, dated 1743/4, this depicts Admiral Matthews being hanged, although in reality, this was a satirical medallion as Matthews left the service not long after his victory. He was seen to gloat over the victories over the Spanish and French and took credit from Vernon (Eimer 582) an important historical medallion. very fine/good very fine, weakness to centres in strike. very scarce
