Comment

Edward VIII gold "King and Emperor" medal 1937, Crowned, draped bust of Edward VIII/Royal Arms and supporters, not in Eimer, but BHM-4302 and listed as RR in gold, 32.4 mm, PR63 Cameo NGC, portrait in low relief. This is not the modern Coincraft striking, but the very rare gold medal struck in 1937.
