Date:17th c.Author (in assoc. with a ms or print source)Elias Ashmole (1617-1692)Collector (major)John, the Elder Tradescant (c.1570s-c.15 Apr 1638)Donator of object(s)Burgh (fl. early 1600s-)Annotation:An independent leaf, 146mm x 96mm. Blank on verso. A drawing with the text as follows: "The draugh [sic] of a Cherystone whereon St. George on ye one side & divers heads were cut on the other, by Capt. Burgh, & given by him to Mr. John Tredescant, who p[re]served it amongst his Rarities." It bears no date, but the item below it, of the same size and format, picturing a medal of St. George slaying the dragon with an annotation in the same hand, is dated "A Paris 1646," which seems not to be the date of the coin. The drawing of the coin bears a date of MCCCLXIX.Bibliographic Source(s):The Travels of Peter Mundy, in Europe an..., page:
