This bronze medal, created in 1729 by Italian artist Ottone Hamerani, depicts Prince Charles Edward Stuart, also known as Bonnie Prince Charlie, in profile. The medal’s inscription "INTER OMNES MICAT" translates to “He shines among all,” likely referring to the prince's role as a Jacobite pretender to the British throne. The medal's detailed portraiture and inscription highlight the importance of the young prince in the Jacobite cause, reflecting the political and social tensions of the time.
