British & Irish Agricultural Medals
British & Irish agricultural medals form one of the most consistently attractive medallic series, thanks in no small measure to the artistic talents of Thomas Ottley and R A Restall, both Birmingham medallists. It would be nice if one day an intrepid collector or dealer would publish a catalogue of these.
