Description:
Le Couronnement à Paris, France.
Edwards said in part: 'Medals of four different sizes were struck on this occasion: the largest were given in gold or silver to those who assisted at the ceremony, and the smallest were thrown among the people by the heralds-at-arms. The latter were struck in such numbers as to require the employment of several dies.'
This is one of the largest size.
