This is the earliest medal of the Prince giving his regal
titles, and was probably intended for circulation amongst his
friends. As it was struck in France, and as the Prince was
under the protection of Louis XIV., the latter, in the form of
the sun, his emblem, may here be said to be dispelling the
clouds which obscured James’s prospects. It may, however,
typify that the youthful King would, as a rising sun, dispel the
clouds which had obscured the prospects of his own friends.

John Locke, philosopher and theological writer, born 1632,
was educated at Westminster and Oxford. He was much
attached to Lord Ashley, afterwards Earl of Shaftesbury,
through whom he received several minor official appointments.
He resided in Holland during the reign of James II., but
returned to England at the accession of William and Mary.
He died 28 Oct. 1704. The reverse of the medal alludes to
Locke’s works upon Toleration and Civil Government, and
also to his work upon the Human Understanding. Rudolphi
(Recentioris Aevi Numis. Virorum de Rebus Med., dc., Dantzig,
1862, p. 219) describes another medal of Locke by Dassier,
with the type of thq reverse as above, but with the obverse
slightly varied.
