Description

Anne silver "Battle of Malplaquet" Medal 1709 AU/UNC, Eimer-438, MI-II-359/197. 47.5mm. Edge plain. By J. Croker. An outstanding testament to the degree of detail possible in medallic art, where varied engraving depth and texture styles combine to produce a battle scene so realistic one can almost hear it. Fields aglow with luster tinged with iridescent tone, scarcely any wear or contact to the boldly rendered designs, a choice medal of outstanding quality and subsequent preservation.
