RR Feine Patina, kl. Randfehler, fast vorzüglich Vgl. den Kommentar bei Hawkins, S. 193: "James II. made every possible effort to have his cause advocated and himself represented at the Treaty of Ryswick, but, neglected by the Allies and rejected by Louis, the crown of England was firmly placed upon the head of William. James protested against the treaty, and several medals were issued illustrating the circumstances and situation of the Stuart family. On this medal they are symbolized by a ship distressed but not destroyed, and the portrait of the young Prince intimates that the claims of the family were not limited to James himself. The medal serves also to assert the son's legitimacy."
