Note 29 — GUIDE TO ENGLISH MEDALS EXHIBITED. (continued 3)

Ehrenreich Hannibal, born at Stockholm 1678, was a pupil of Arwed Karlsteen. In 1705 he was appointed medallist to the Court at Brunswick, and was in the service of the Elector of Hanover at the time of his accession to the English throne. Although he executed several medals for George I. and George II., he was never employed at the English Mint, nor is there any evidence of his having resided in England. He afterwards worked for the Archbishops of Cologne, the kings of Prussia, and the Landgraves of Hesse; his work being much esteemed. He died 1741.
