GREAT BRITAIN. James "III"/Appeal Against the House of Hannover Bronze Medal, 1721. PCGS SPECIMEN-63. MI-454/63; Eimer-493; Woolf-40:1. By O. Hamerani. Diameter: 47mm. Obverse: Draped and armored bust of James "III" (the Old Pretender) right; Reverse: Horse of Hannover trampling English lion and Scottish unicorn, as distressed Britannia watches under a tree to left; <em>veduta </em>of London in background. <em>Edge</em>: Plain. Presenting alluring brown surfaces and a great deal of glistening brilliance, this choice Jacobite piece features the bust of the Old Pretender, the would-be James III, as a more favorable leader for Great Britain than George I, a Hannoverian German, especially following the debacle of the South Sea Bubble in 1720. <strong>To view all items from the Mark and Lottie Salton Collection, click <a href="https://auctions.stacksbowers.com/lots?sort=auction_date_lot_number_asc&search=Salton+Collection&limit=36&lots_range=upcoming"> here.</a></strong> From the Mark and Lottie Salton Collection.
