The Trial and Acquittal of John Lilburne, London, 1649, a struck silver medal, unsigned [by D. Ramage after T. Simon], draped bust left, iohn lilborne saved by the power of the lord and the integrity of his ivry who are ivges of law as wel as fact oct 26 1649, rev. myles petty ste iles abr smith ion king, etc around central rose, 34mm, 12.87g (Platt II, p.202, type A [A1, this item]; MI I, 385/3; E 177). Nearly very fine, rare £1,000-£1,200 --- John Lilburne (1614-57), a Puritan who converted to the Quaker religion in the year before his death, fought for the Parliamentarians in the Civil War and was present at Edge Hill and Marston Moor, although between these two engagements he had been captured by royalists while in the parliamentary garrison at Brentford. An agitator for the the freeborn rights of Englishmen, he spent most of the later 1640s incarcerated in the Tower for denouncing his former military commander, the Earl of Manchester, as a royalist sympathiser. A campaign to free him spawned a new political party, the Levellers, which had a strong following in the New Model Army although Lilburne had begun to see the reality of life under Cromwell’s diktat and his supporters actively agitated for King Charles’s son, in exile in France, to finance the Leveller movement. Parliament passed a motion for Lilburne to be tried for high treason, as the King had been, but unlike the case of the monarch, a jury of 12 would decide Lilburne’s fate. The trial, which started on 24 October 1649, lasted two days and the jury, whose names are on the reverse of the medal, found him not guilty. For the next two years Lilburne remained politically inactive, but after a dispute concerning the ownership of collieries in his native County Durham, he was sentenced to pay a fine of £3,000 to the state and was banished for life.
The Trial and Acquittal of John Lilburne, London, 1649, an oval struck silver-gilt medal, unsigned [by D. Ramage after T. Simon], draped bust left, iohn lilborne, rev. october 26 1649, family arms in shield, 25 x 22mm, 5.24g (Platt II, p.202, type B; MI I, 386/4; E 178). Some light scratches above shield, very fine and very rare £1,200-£1,500 --- These medals were attributed to Simon by Vertue, and the portraiture (bust punch) is certainly Simon’s work. Hawkins was sceptical, however, and rightly so. Later studies show that these medals were almost certainly the first major work of David Ramage (cf. DNW 160, 411), incorporating as they do punches for symbols also used on Ramage’s trade tokens. This would have been a private commission, probably sponsored by Lilburne himself.
Cromwell, Lord General, 1650, a round uniface copper restrike (c. 1738 or later) of the oval medal by T. Simon, armoured bust three-quarters right, oli cromwell milit parl dvx gen, 36mm (Platt I, p.336; Lessen p.93, Gp B and pl. xvi, 6; MI I, 388/7; E 180a). Die flaw partly tooled out, very fine or better £150-£200 --- The die is thought to have broken before any medals could be struck from it, a view supported by the absence of a reverse. It is believed to have been taken to Holland in 1720 where restrikes in gold, silver and copper were produced, normally on round flans. Oval strikings are considered to have been made later (see M. Lessen, ‘The Cromwell Lord General Medal by Simon’, BNJ 1979, pp.87-98).

Major-General John Lambert, 1653, a small uniface oval silver portrait medal, by J. Stuart after Thomas Simon, bare head left with short, curled hair, lambert behind, 25 x 22mm (Platt II, pp.182-3, type E; MI I, 405/39 var.). Extremely fine, toned and very rare, contained in its original shagreen case, this with an old inked label, ‘M G Lambert’ £300-£400 --- John Lambert (1619-84) was a leading Parliamentary general during the Civil War and the principal architect of the Protectorate, the form of republican government which existed from 1653 to 1659. He first distinguished himself in encounters with the Royalists at Bradford in March 1644, and he fought bravely in the major Parliamentary victory at Marston Moor in July. A major-general at the age of 28, he helped Henry Ireton draw up the “Heads of the Proposals,” a draft constitution aimed at reconciling the conflicting interests of the army, Parliament and the king. At the beginning of the second phase of the Civil War in 1648, Lambert was commander of the troops of northern England. He routed the Scottish Royalist invaders at Preston in August and, on 22 March 1649, he captured Pontefract, the last Royalist stronghold in England. Second in command under Cromwell during the campaigns against the Royalists in Scotland in 1650 and 1651, Lambert was also at Worcester on 3 September 1651, when the future Charles II was defeated in the final battle of the Civil War. Lambert was a key figure during the Commonwealth but in 1657 outspokenly opposed the proposal that Cromwell be made king. In June 1662, he was sentenced to death for his part in the Civil War but was granted a reprieve and spent the rest of his life in prison.

A later cast, worked in fields, otherwise nearly very fine £100-£150

Extremely fine and very rare, contained in a contemporary shagreen case £300-£400 --- When making his series of restitutional medals, it would seem that Stuart was misinformed and copied a Dutch medal of one James Pasch, aged 36, and made him into James Ashe, aged 56. Ashe was an important figure in the history of Bath, being elected MP in 1640 and again in 1656. He was later appointed Recorder for the City. He married Margerey Harrinton in 1652.
