Elizabeth I silver "Defeat of Spanish Armada" Jeton 1588 MS62 NGC, Dordrecht mint, Eimer-60, M-I-147/116. 30mm. A captivating design, celebrating the defeat of the Spanish Armada, depicting four figures praying and a wrecking ship. The Battle of Gravelines, off the coast of France, marked the rise of the British Navy, commanded by Sir Francis Drake, over the so-called "Invincible Armada". Though Spain remained a seafaring superpower, the British sailors began challenging the Spaniards with greater confidence. Gracious cabinet toning covers the lustrous fields of this razor-sharp piece, the single example graded by NGC.
