Heavy, dated 1652, appears to have the royal Tudor rose in between the prince and princess on obverse. Seeing I believe name Joanna, maybe Philip? On reverse I am seeing the word " Edinburgh " Can anyone tell me what I have here? I would appreciate it guys Report this Post to the Staff

For me, it would also be better if you uploaded them rather than using a Pinterest link - I don't have a Pinterest login and so I can't download them to magnify and rotate. PS: by downloading the thumbnail and tinkering I can make out Eggenberg on the reverse - a princely district in modern day Austria. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eggenberg_family In the titles on the obverse I can see that it is for Johan Christian, who was Prince of Eggenberg 1641 to 1710. By the double portrait I would suspect this is a wedding medallion for his marriage to Princes Maria Ernestina of Schwarzenberg. A gentle clean with soap and water would clear some of the crud and make it easier to read. Edited by PaddyB 07/28/2020 03:33 am Report this Post to the Staff
