Preliminaries for the Peace of Amiens, 1801, and Peace of Paris, 1814, a pair of hollowed-out struck silver-gilt medals, unsigned, each with figure of Peace standing on quayside emptying a cornucopia, one with ships engraved in background, THEY SHALL PROSPER THAT LOVE THEE, reverses crossed cornucopia and oak branch, TO COMMEMORATE PEACE CONCLUDED, etc., each 38mm (cf. BHM 516 reverse, 820 obverse). [2]. With integral loop mounts, about extremely fine and better, an attractive and unusual pair (£40-60) Footnote 1801 piece only illustrated. Sold together with tickets which state that the pair were bought in September 1968 from the coin market which then operated at Cutler Street, London. As BHM 516 was an issue by the Birmingham medallist H. Kettle, it is possible that this pair of medals are to be associated with him
