Issued for the 1839 Methodist Centenary in both John Wesley and George Whitefield forms, the present is a a charming full bust of John Wesley in what seems to be ebony, or something imitating it, with inlaid clerical tie in mother of pearl.
Measures 3.2 inches in height and retains original diced brass wax seal at base.
Moderate handling and wear as usual, retains the original mother of pearl inlays which are often lacking, loss at nose, but the form still very clear and attractive. Base reads, “John Wesley.”
