Not on view

This plate shows the privy seal (above) and signet ring (below) of Mary, Queen of Scots, flanked by the obverse and reverse of the commemorative medal. It is likely based on a plate by John West, included in A Souvenir of the Abbey and Palace of Holyrood – "Medal Struck at Paris Commemorative of the Marriage of Francis Dauphin of France & Mary Queen of Scots 24 April A.D. 1558." West's engraving includes five additional seals not depicted here.
