Anne silver "Campaign of 1709" Medal 1709 AU, Eimer-Unl., MI-II-366/207. 43.75mm. Edge plain. By P. H. Müller. An extremely rare type, commemorating the conquest of Tournai and Mons. Besides some light wear to the obverse this medal is almost as struck, a rose-gold patina blanketing the high-relief devices and adding tremendous eye appeal to a well-executed and boldly rendered piece. Seemingly only two other examples of this type have been offered within the last two decades, and the present piece appears finer than both of these; accordingly, dedicated collectors of British medals should ensure they place a strong bid in order to secure it for their collection.
