William & Mary gold Coronation Medal 1689 AU Details (Removed from Jewelry) NGC, MI-662-25, Eimer-312a. 35mm. By J. Roettier. Depicting Jove striking down Phaethon on the back of his chariot, this rare gold medal is one of only 715 produced to celebrate the coronation of William and Mary, distributed by the king amongst the Commons and his courtiers. The present offering has likely received its details designation as a result of its exhibiting evidence of past cleaning, as it shows little in the way of mount marks commensurate with its being removed from jewelery. The altering of its surfaces aside, the medal boasts a high visual appeal, little loss of detail and a deep gold in color. One of the most popular of the British coronation medal series and in a highly collectable level of preservation!
From the Collection of a Berkshire Gentleman
