Silver, Vertu, Coins & Medals - 14th and 15th July - 14 Jul 2015
A Georgian Private Charitable Society
A Georgian Private Charitable Society, an engraved and shaped silver badge, three young men received by a standing figure in gown and cap, within scrolled decorations, legend engraved on scroll below, UNANIMITY IS THE STRENGTH OF SOCIETY, 81.5 x 93mm. Very fine.
The motto was that of the Most Ancient and Honourable Society of Bucks, though their members' jewels show "Freedom with Innocence". It is certainly possible that this is a badge or jewel of the Society though the engraved scene remains something of a mystery.
