This 1815 bronze medal by George Mills features a laurel wreath design encircling the words “Under the Regency”, surrounded by an inscription listing the names of members of the British Parliament. This inscription reflects the political climate of the time, when George III was declared unfit to rule due to his declining mental health, leading to his son, the Prince Regent, assuming power. This commemorative medal likely served as a political token, highlighting the names of prominent figures who were part of this important period in British history.
