RUSSIA, COMMEMORATIVE MEDAL. Transportation of the granite monolith for the monument to Peter I, 1770, struck in gold, by J.C.G.Jaeger. Obverse: Laureate bust of Catherine II left, mantled and wearing star and ribbon: above the portrait signature of engraver J.C.G JAEGAR. Reverse: A panoramic view of the transport of the granite block with the Tsarina, workers, and spectators. The reverse of this medal is based on an engraving by I.F.Schley of the drawings by Y.M.Felten. The block of granite used as a pedestal for the monument was called 'The Thunder Stone', and was considered to be the largest stone ever moved by man. Its weight was calculated at 15,000 tonne, it was moved 6km overland to the Gulf of Finland and then by barge to St. Petersburg. The project was considered a historic engineering feat, all work was done by men, no animals or machines were used in the transport of the stone. The engineer in charge was a Greek serving as a Leftenant Colonel in the Russian Army, Marinos Carburis. He was the first Greek to hold a diploma in engineering. The medal is believed to be one of the finest of the few known and has minimal wear appearing in its original state with proof-like fields and finely engraved frosted relief. The medal is being offered contained in what appears to be its original turned wood box. Provenance: The Batten Family, Church Farm, Ryme Intrinseca, Dorset This medal is purported to have been gifted to Mr John Chamberlaine (1745-1812). He was an antiquary and held the position of the Keeper of Drawings, Coins and Medals to King George III (1760-1820), from 1791 until his death in 1812. J. Chamberlaine, along with Frederick Augusta Barnard, published the well-known Holbein drawings of Tudor worthies in the Royal Collection. The work was titled 'Imitations of Original Drawings by Hans Holbein in the Collection of His Majesty for the Portraits of Illustrious Persons of the Court of Henry VIII. He then published many other books in George III's collection. It is possible that during this time that he had dealing with the Russian Court and was presented these medals. J. Chamberlaine was admitted as a member of the Society of Antiquaries on June 7th 1792. He was also a member of the Society of Arts. J. Chamberlaine's grand-daughter was married to John Beardmore, from whose daughter the Batten family decended. These medals were given to H.C.C. Batten in April 1906 by his Uncle.
