GREAT BRITAIN. Edward VII & Alexandra Coronation Gold Medal, 1902. London Mint. NGC MS-63.
BHM-3737; Eimer-1871A. Mintage: 878. By G. W. DeSaulles. Diameter: 55mm. Obverse: EDWARD VII CROWNED 9 AUGUST 1902, crowned and mantled bust of Edward right, wearing Chain of the Garter; garlanded laurel branch below; Reverse: ALEXANDRA QUEEN CONSORT, crowned, veiled, and draped bust of Alexandra right; garlanded flowers and scroll with date below. An ever-popular design that yields rather impressive portraits of the royal couple (especially in this larger-format issue), the present piece displays a straw yellow hue and an enticing matte nature. Only a few very faint remnants of friction prevent an ever higher, near-Gem designation. To view all items from the Augustana Collection, click here.
