EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite commemorative medal marks the royal marriage of Princess Victoria, also known as Vicky (1840-1901), the eldest daughter of Queen Victoria, to Crown Prince Frederick William of Prussia, also known as Fritz (1831-1888), on January 25, 1858. The medal, designed by the renowned English sculptor Leonard Charles Wyon of the Royal Mint, showcases the bridegroom and bride in profile on the obverse side. Their regal visages are framed by a decorative border adorned with intricate floral motifs, including roses and orange blossoms, symbols of love and fertility. The reverse side of the medal displays the date of the marriage, "January 25, 1858," encircled by an elegant wreath of roses and orange blossoms. The design is a testament to the grandeur and opulence of the royal wedding, which took place at the Berlin Palace in Germany. The medal, struck by the Royal Mint, is a commemorative piece that celebrates the union of two European monarchies. The intricate detail and high-quality craftsmanship are evident in the busts of the bride and groom, as well as the delicate floral motifs that adorn the border. The medal is a beautiful keepsake that captures the essence of a historic royal event and serves as a reminder of the strong connections between the British and Prussian monarchies during the 19th century.
