Description

George I silver "Arrival in England" Medal 1714 AU (cleaned), Eimer-466, MI-II-422/6. 67mm. Edge plain. By J. Croker. A scarce medal commemorating the arrival of the Hanoverian King into England, retaining much detail despite its harsh cleaning. Tone is returning to the planchet, a shadowy patina inhabiting the recesses of George's portrait and encroaching from the peripheries; contact marks and scratches pepper the fields but the overall effect remains appealing.
