Grimaldi in his "Catalogue Chronological and Descriptive of Paintings, Drawings & Engravings by and after William Grimaldi RA." (privately printed 1873). It includes no. 185, H.G. Arthur L.

Matthew Boulton's Medallic Scale, the original obverse and reverse dies, c.1803, by Conrad Heinrich Kόchler, obv: bust of Boulton in intaglio, in frock coat, his hair en queue, MATT BOULTON ESQR …, rev: around a central sun the medallic scale in six concentric circles, the details in French, 56 x 68mm; 52 x 67mm (Pollard 27; BHM 462; Eimer 901B), small alignment marks at compass points on both dies around 'medal'. Good fine, the obverse surface showing rust damage, especially towards end of legend. (2) Boulton had been angered by the French and, in particular Jean-Pierre Droz (1746-1823), who he had employed for a short while, but who now, he felt was claiming many of Boulton's inventions as his own. The medal spells out the many achievements of the Soho Mint in terms of output, etc. Boulton had originally conceived the idea of a smaller medal which was to be entrusted to another French medallist, R Dumarest, but Rouw's wax portrait of Boulton was undoubtedly worked by Kόchler. The legend indicates the number of coins or medals of the diameter of each particular circle, that could be struck per minute, "by eight children without fatigue….".

Russia, Alexander I (1777-1801-1825), Pattern Rouble, 1804, the original obverse die, by Conrad Heinrich KÏŒchler, his uniformed bust in intaglio, with high collar and Sash of Order, legend around, ALEXANDER I D:G IMP AVTOCR RVSSOR, 50 x 66mm (Pollard 29 (i); Diakov 293.1; Bitkin 691. Severin 2552; BDM VI, 396, illus), small alignment marks at compass points around 'coin'. Good fine, actual coin surface showing rust damage. The legend shows Alexander as, "By God's grace Emperor and Autocrat of All Russia". Portrait to the right. Boulton had made a gift of coins from the Soho mint to the Russian Court and was immediately commissioned to supply a complete mint to the Russian Government. This was shipped in 1800 immediately following a special act of Parliament that allowed the export. The portrait for this die and that in the the following lot, was modelled in London in wax by Peter Rouw from a bust of the Emperor in the possession of a Mr. Weissinghausen KÏŒchler then worked from the wax, though Boulton subsequently borrowed the bust for KÏŒchler to work from.

Admiral Lord Nelson (1758-1805), Matthew Boulton's Trafalgar Medal, 1805, the original obverse and reverse dies, by Conrad Heinrich Kόchler, obv: uniformed bust of Nelson, HORATIO VISCOUNT NELSON K.B. DUKE OF BRONTE. &c, rev: view of the naval engagement, ENGLAND EXPECTS THAT EVERY MAN WILL DO HIS DUTY, exergue: TRAFALGAR. OCT. 21. 1805; the reverse die with deep alignment cut on edge, 55 x 68mm, 57 x 71mm (BHM.584; Milford Haven 1919, 496; Eimer 960; Pollard, NC 1970, 30). Good fine, actual medal surface showing rust damage. (2) There were three attempts to obtain a life-like portrait of Nelson, the Nelson family and Lady Hamilton both rejected the first, taken from a drawing by Lady Beechey. Lady Hamilton then provided a miniature and Boulton's friend J. Furnell Tuffin provided a drawing by Simon de Koster, but again this was rejected. Lady Hamilton then provided a wax portrait by Catherine Andras (1775-1860), which she believed to be "the most striking likeness". The reverse battle-scene was designed by the marine artist Richard Clevely, who took it "at the time the Royal Sovereign is going into action partly enveloped in smoke …". The medal was finally completed in October 1806 and the King was presented with a specimen at breakfast on the 24th
