COMMEMORATIVE MEDALS, British Historical Medals, The Rev William Stukeley (1687-1765), Antiquary, “Archdruid” and Freemason, the Famous “Stonehenge Medal” on the Death of Stukeley, 1765, large Copper Medal, attributed to Gottlieb (George) Daniel Gaab (active 1744 - d. 1784), bare head of Stukeley right with a wreath of clover (or, more likely, oak leaves) in his hair, REV GVL STVKEKEY M D SR & AS, æt 54, rev view of Stonehenge, OB MAR 4 1765 / Æ 84, 84mm (BHM 94). Choice extremely fine, light patination and extremely rare. Stukeley was a Fellow of the Royal Society, the Royal College of Physicians, and the re-formed Society of Antiquaries. The source of the images on both sides of the medal relate directly to Stukeley’s most famous book “Stonehenge a Temple Restor’d to the British Druids [&] Abury, a Temple of the British Druids …”, published in 1740. The engraved frontispiece shows the same bust, which is taken, in turn, from a self-portrait, showing him as a Druid, that is now in the British Museum. The reverse, also taken from the book, shows a “Prospect of STONEHENGE from the southwest”. It was the late Thomas Stainton who attributed the portrait as after that by David Le Marchand (annotations to his copy of BHM), which is known to have been executed in 1722, when Stukely was 35 – not the 54 shown on the medal. The medal is believed to have been made around 1775, ten years after Stukeley’s death. The medallist was certainly confused by Stukeley’s age at the time of his death, he died aged 78 and not 84, as shown on the medal’s reverse. Daniel Gaab signed only one medal, that of Sir Christopher Wren (see previous lot). ex “English Collector”, Glendining, 22 November 1989, lot 131, and Roy Davids Collection. Another example was sold in Baldwin’s Auction 38, 4 October 2004, lot 1037
