From the collection of medals formed by William Victor Royle Baldwin (known as Roy or Uncle Roy), one of A H Baldwin & Sons Ltd founder's three sons, he was born in 1893.
Marie of Austria was Charles V's daughter, wife of Maximilian II, Queen of Bohemia. She twice served as regent of Spain. Attwood's attribution to Trezzo seems to be the final word, however others have suggested Pompeo Leoni and even Leone Leoni.
