Condition

The first-mentioned plaque has a few fine cracks above the head of the portrait. There is a tiny chip and a slither chip in the enamel just below his chest and a few more associated cracks in that area. There are two more cracks under the head, one of which appears to have been partially restored. There are a few fine and insignificant scratches to the surface. There are some typical cracks to the reverse and the frame is in good condition.
The other plaque has been restored with overpainting to the surface on both sides which has slightly discoloured. A number of cracks are nonetheless visible on the upper surface and there are some fine scratches to the print.
