Rare Official Medal commemorating the Coronation of Edward VII 9th August 1902

  This is an example of the official Coronation Medallion of King Edward VII on the 9th August 1902. This medal was designed by George William de Saulles, whose grandfather had been the Page of the Presence in the household of both George IV and William IV. De Saulles trained at the Birmingham School of Art, and came to work in London in 1884., In 1893 he became engraver to the mint. These medallions are found with two different dates, 26th June 1902, and 9th August 1902. This is because the coronation was originally scheduled for the earlier date, but Edward had to undergo an emergency appendectomy operation, so the coronation was postponed until the later date.

Obverse: The obverse shows a portrait of Edward, by the engraver G. W. De Saulles, with the inscription: EDWARD VII CROWNED 9 AUGUST 1902. Reverse: The reverse shows a portrait, also by De Saulles, of Queen Alexandra, and the inscription: ALEXANDRA. 9th August 1902. It was struck by the Royal Mint, and was produced in two sizes, and three metals, gold, silver and copper, and measures 56 mms in diameter.

A rare collectable medal.
