Great Britain, Silver Medal Queen Anne Dated 1704. Queen Anne's Bounty Medal. MI-251/44, 44.7mm. NGC MS62, Cert# 3349830-015. Made by John Croker (signed I C), or (un-Anglicised) Crocker, Johann (1670–1741), a well-known engraver of English coins and medals. Medal has gorgeous antique patina with tons of mint lustre and color. Subtle silvery gold toning, struck in high relief, the portrait by Croker seemingly in marble it's so three-dimensional. Queen Anne's Bounty was a fund established in 1704 to augment the incomes of the poorer clergy of the Church of England. The bounty was funded by the tax (annates) on the incomes of all Church of England clergy, which was paid to the Pope until the Reformation, and thereafter to the Crown.
