I am afraid I have taken rather a long time to get it woven as I have been travelling in India. There is a nylon loop at the top of the hanging - so it only needs one nail in the wall to hang it from. I hope you like it. Yours sincerely Peter Collingwood P.S. The metal label shows it is design M.143 & that it is the 74th time I have woven this design'.Peter Collingwood (1922-2008) was at the forefront of weaving for fifty years.

II: Civil War Medals, Edward Montagu, 2nd Earl of Manchester, 1643, a cast and chased silver military reward, unsigned, armoured bust facing three-quarters left, rev. Montagu arms, coronet above, wreath border of two narrow rows of laurel leaves on both sides, 31 x 27mm, 7.87g (Platt II, p.233, type E; MI I, 309/137; E 143A var.). Good very fine, undoubtedly a contemporary original, very rare £400-£600 --- Provenance: Marquess of Bute Collection, Part III, Sotheby Auction, 2 July 1951, lot 56 (part); C.H. Hartmann Collection, Sotheby Auction, 13 November 1967, lot 3; SCMB February 1968 (M 320). This specimen is far superior in manufacture and image to virtually all others found on the market (including those described by Platt), which are almost always not even after-casts, but 18th century copies. The medallist for the portrait was very accomplished, probably on the Parliamentary side, but unfortunately unknown. Edward Montagu, 2nd Earl of Manchester (1602-71) was Major General commanding the Eastern Association Army of the seven counties of Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Huntingdonshire, Lincolnshire, Norfolk and Suffolk. He was Cromwell’s commander until the New Model Army was formed

Small piercing for suspension, very fine, reverse better, peripheral reddish toning, excessively rare and important; the only known original striking in gold £15,000-£20,000 --- Provenance: M. Gutman Collection, Part V, Parke Bernet Galleries Auction (New York), 15 May 1970, lot 151. This was made by Simon in 1651 in response to unknown official orders, probably from the Council of State, as a reward for the victorious battle over the Scottish army at Dunbar on 3 September 1650. Its distribution is unclear. This is the only original large medal known in gold, and only two are currently recorded in silver. All other examples are 18th to 20th century restrikes from original and false dies. There is no original large Dunbar medal in any metal in any major museum in Britain. Further detail regarding its examination by Dr M.S. Tite at the British Museum Research Laboratory on 12 June 1976 is sold with the lot

XIII: Medals of Charles II by Simon, Dominion of the Sea, 1665, a struck silver medal by T. Simon, laureate and draped bust of Charles II right, signed simon below, carolvs ii d g m br fr et hib rex, rev. et pontvs serviet, the King as Neptune, in a marine car being drawn by four sea-horses, fleet in background, 27mm, 9.34g (Nathanson p.40; MI I, 506/145; E 233). Possible trace of mounting on edge, otherwise very fine, toned £700-£900 --- Provenance: A.P. Adams Collection, Part I, Glendining Auction, 16 March 1989, lot 200. An early specimen, with no die cracks, struck on a relatively thin flan with no collar. These medals commemorate the naval victory over the Dutch off Lowestoft on 3 June 1665, under James, Duke of York. Although one cannot know how many of Simon’s medals were struck before the reverse die fractured, nor of Roettiers’, it seems probable that the latter’s was the main production. This is apparently Simon’s final work, and certainly his last medal. The bust and signature are that of the Petition crown

XV: Dutch and French Medals, Death of Oliver Cromwell, 1658, a large struck silver medal, late 17th century (?), unsigned (of Dutch origin), after T. Simon, from the same obv. die as previous, rev. non defitient oliva sep 3 1658, shepherd with his flock under an olive tree, landscape in background, 49mm, 47.10g (Lessen, BNJ 1982, dies 1/2; Henfrey pl. v, 5; Platt II, p.26, type C; MI I, 435/85; v. Loon II, 420; E 200). Minor rim bruises, otherwise obverse extremely fine, reverse nearly so, toned, rare £700-£900 --- Provenance: SCMB January 1948 (M 1028); R.E. Ockenden Collection; bt R.E.O.

XV: Dutch and French Medals, Subservience of France and Spain, after 1680 (?), a struck silver medal, unsigned, laureate bust of Cromwell left, olivar d g r p ang sco hiberniæ protector, rev. retire toy l’honnevr appartiet av roy mon maister, in exergue, lovis le grand, Britannia seated left, Cromwell kneeling with his head in her lap, presenting his buttocks to the French and Spanish ambassadors who wait to pay him homage, 46mm, 42.75g (Platt I, p.351; MI I, 420/60; v. Loon II, 395). Collector’s number painted on edge, otherwise about extremely fine and toned, very rare £600-£800 --- Provenance: SCMB April 1952 (M 683); R.E. Ockenden Collection; bt R.E.O. The Dutch medallist has not been identified. The reverse refers to the negotiations of 1655, but the armoured bust is taken from the 1658 funeral medal. It is generally agreed that the figure of Britannia was not revived before c. 1672, so this medal must have been struck after that date. The reverse legend quotes the French ambassador as he pushes his Spanish counterpart aside: ‘Get back. The honour belongs to the King, my master, Louis the Great’
