Item Description:

This historical medal commemorates Admiral Edward Vernon's capture of Porto Bello (modern-day Panama) from Spain in 1739 during the War of Jenkins' Ear. The victory was celebrated throughout Britain and inspired the production of numerous commemorative medals. The reverse typically depicts the British fleet entering the harbour, symbolising one of Britain's greatest naval successes of the eighteenth century. Vernon medals are highly collectable pieces of British naval history.
