After the warmest May on record here in the UK, I wonder what June will bring. Maybe some more good weather and hopefully plenty of new Exonumia. Good luck everyone ☺

‘Medal, for peace Amiens 1802 Marquis Cornwallis - Britannia holding plaque. 20.60g’
[MARQUIS CORNWALLIS // POST NUBILA PHOEBUS]
· Footnote
The Treaty of Amiens, signed on 25 March 1802 by Joseph Bonaparte (1768-1844),
elder brother of Napoléon, and Marquis Cornwallis, temporarily ended hostilities
between France, Spain and the United Kingdom. However, the consequent peace only
lasted for just over a year as Britain, increasingly angered by Napoleon's subsequent
re-ordering of the international system in Western Europe, declared war on France in May 1803.

So far June has been very damp, and the midgies have arrived! Hey-ho!
Got this one recently, St. Ives Tercentenary of Incorporation in 1939, now added: N#582092
Maybe nothing special but a year when not many medals were issued (this is only the third I have for UK in 1939). Kind of chilling to think of their celebrations knowing what was coming…
