- Curator's comments
- Brown 1980 states:
One of Mudie's National Medals (see Brown 1 p256.1057) issued in 1820. Examples of this medal occur in white metal and are probably restrikes and were not included in the series. This medal is believed to have been struck in gold but no specimen has been met with.
The Ashmolean Museum has a mule of the obverse of this piece and the obverse of Brown 1 p226.933 (Mudie No. 1).
