EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent silver medal commemorating the coronation of William and Mary in 1689. Created by the English School in the 17th century, this piece measures an impressive diameter of 5.9 cm and belongs to the esteemed Timothy Millett Collection. The obverse side of this medal features a striking bust medallion depicting a smiling female ruler, believed to be Mary II, alongside her husband William III. The inscription "A Noble Pair Greater Than Their Sceptres" serves as a testament to their power and influence as King and Queen of England, Scotland, and Ireland during their reign from 1688 to 1694. With its intricate baroque design and historical significance, this commemorative medal captures the essence of royalty and ceremonial grandeur. The craftsmanship displayed in this metalwork is truly remarkable, showcasing the skillful artistry prevalent during that era.
