Anne silver "Concord of Britain" Medal 1711 AU, Eimer-451, MI-II-386/238. 44 mm. Edge plain. By P. H. Müller. An ironically-timed medal, produced to celebrate the momentary cessation of hostilities in the wars of Spanish succession after Emperor Joseph I died and was succeeded by his brother Charles. This pleasing piece features its date in chronogrammatic form, in that every larger capitalised word on the reverse spells a numeral of the date, ergo DVLCMLVI = 1711. Firmly struck, with a red gold patina shrouding the sharp devices (especially the reverse harp), the quality and preservation admirably strong.
