EDWARD VIII, Royal Agricultural Society of NSW, Sydney, a bronze medal, 54mm, (1936), obverse with portrait by Percy Metcalfe for Stokes of Melbourne of Edward VIII to right, reverse agricultural scene, unnamed, (cf.C.1936/8-9). In case of issue, uncirculated and extremely rare.
The Melbourne Royal Show version listed in Giordano (ref. 174) but the Sydney piece unlisted. The issue is from the same and similar punches as those listed in Carlisle above and probably a pattern for those issues.
