I try to honestly describe everything
I sell, but please view the pictures and grade for yourself. No
warranties are
expressed or implied in my opinion of the grades, grading is an art, not
a
science. Several subjective factors of personal preference may be
considered
different by others. These include color, toning, strike, blemishes, and
overall eye appeal. It is possible that two people will not always grade
the
same item alike. Also, as market conditions change, grading standards
change,
and will most likely continue to do so in the future. Each Bidder's own
examination of the item(s) is the criterion and not the grade
represented by
another.

Queen Victoria
ictoria, the daughter of the duke of Kent and Princess
Victoria of Saxe-Coburg, was born in 1819. She inherited the throne of
Great Britain at the age of eighteen, upon the death of her uncle
William IV in 1837, and reigned until 1901, bestowing her name upon her
age. She married her mother's nephew, Albert (1819-1861), prince of
Saxe-Coburg Gotha, in 1840, and until his death he remained the focal
point of her life (she bore him nine children). Albert replaced Lord
Melbourne, the Whig Prime Minister
who had served her as her first personal and political tutor and
instructor, as Victoria's chief advisor. Albert was moralistic,
conscientious and progressive, if rather priggish, sanctimonious, and
intellectually shallow, and with Victoria initiated various reforms and
innovations— he organized the Great Exhibition of 1851,
for example— which were responsible for a great deal of the popularity
later enjoyed by the British monarchy. (In contrast to the Great
Exhibition, housed in the Crystal Palace and viewed by proud Victorians
as a monument to their own cultural and technological achievements,
however, we may recall that the government over which Victoria and
Albert presided had, in the midst of the potato famine
of 1845, continued to permit the export of grain and cattle from
Ireland to England while over a million Irish peasants starved to
death).

What do they suggest about the Queen's role in Victorian society? Her
changing function as what the twentieth century terms a "role model"?
After Albert's death in 1861 a desolate Victoria remained in
self-imposed seclusion for ten years. Her genuine but obsessive
mourning, which would occupy her for the rest of her life, played an
important role in the evolution of what would become the Victorian
mentality. Thereafter she lived at Windsor or Balmoral, travelling
abroad once a year, but making few public appearances in Britain itself.
Although she maintained a careful policy of official political
neutrality, she did not get on at all well with Gladstone. Eventually, however, she succumbed to the flattery of Disraeli, and permitted him (in an act which was both symbolic and theatrical) to have her crowned Empress of India in 1876. (As Punch
noted at the time, "one good turn deserves another," and Victoria
reciprocated by making Disraeli Earl of Beaconsfield.) She tended as a
rule to take an active dislike of British politicians who criticized the
conduct of the conservative regimes of Europe, many of which were,
after all, run by her relatives. By 1870 her popularity was at its
lowest ebb (at the time the monarchy cost the nation £400,000 per annum,
and many wondered whether the largely symbolic institution was worth
the expense), but it increased steadily thereafter until her death. Her
golden jubilee in 1887 was a grand national celebration, as was her
diamond jubilee in 1897 (by then, employing the imperial "we," she had
long been Kipling's
"Widow of Windsor," mother of the Empire). She died, a venerable old
lady, at Osborne on January 22, 1901, having reigned for sixty-four
years.
