AMAZING Antique WAX GREAT SEAL OF SCOTLAND QUEENVICTORIA Framed 8.5" I recently discovered this in a box of family pictures! GreatSeal of Scotland, Queen Victoria, 1837-1901, red wax, 6.25" in diameter housed in wood frame withglass. Thefront shows Queen Victoria's third Great Seal of England. The obverse bears thelegend, "VICTORIA DEI GRATIA BRITANNIARUM REGINA FIDEI DEFENSOR." Thereverse shows the Royal Arms of Scotland, with the lion rampant and the hors...eon the other side. Thescarlet wax indicates that seal was used for an appointment of a bishop or adocument related to the affairs of state. The wax seal measures 6.25 inches. CONDITION: Theseal shows considerable wear on the back side along with numerous cracks. The front isin excellent condition, but shows some chipped edges. There is a white spot on the inside of the glass on both sides. Probably from contact with the wax for so many years. The frame has a loop at the top for hanging and measures 8.5 inches x8.5 inches. My photos show reflections from the glass, but you can see beyond thereflection of my phone, to the amazing images below. ENLARGE PHOTOS FOR DETAILS Reasonableoffers are always considered.
