DESCRIPTIVE DATA
----------------
object type: From the reign of Elizabeth I (1558-1603) notable successes of the Royal Navy were occasionally celebrated by commemorative medals, which gave great scope for images of ships in sail and naval battles. In Elizabeth's own reign, England was twice threatened with a Spanish invasion. The defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588 was marked by the issue of this superb gold medal, attributed to the famous painter and goldsmith Nicholas Hilliard (1547-1619). It shows a bay tree (believed to be a protection from storms) on an island representing Britain, with ships in the distance.
