DESCRIPTIVE DATA
----------------
object type: Engraved sometime after 1616 following a miniature by Isaac Oliver (in the Royal Collection) of 20 years earlier. The dress worn by Elizabeth is said to be that which she wore to St. Paul's after the defeat of the Armada. The inscription on the reverse is likewise said to have been the impromptu production of a Westminster scholar, Elizabeth herself having proposed her armorial bearings as the subject of an epigram. These medals by Passe, though commonly supposed to be engraved, are only stamped in imitation of engraving.
