ELKINGTON & CO (Brit.). A firm of London and Sheffield Silver smiths, which has from time to time edited medals. The City Cor- poration medal of 1891, commemorating the Visit of the Emperor and Empress of Germany to London is signed ELKINGTON & CO, and is a fine piece of work; that struck in 1886, on the Colonial and Indian Reception, is also by the same firm. The medals on the Industrial Exhibition at Toronto, 1879 ; The Marquis of Lome and Princess Louise; and those produced to celebrate the 1887 Jubilee, and 1897 Diamond Jubilee, do not exhibit the same good work- manship and execution . Their latest production is a coronation medal of King Edward VII., June 1902, engraved by the artist George Frampton, R.A.
