YEO, RICHARD (Brit.). Medallist and Engraver of coins and
gems, date of birth unknown, died in 1779. In 1745 he was lodging
at a druggist's, near Craven Street, Strand, and in i746inTavistock
Street, Govern Garden (Numismatic Chronicle, new ser. XV.
90 f.).

In 1749 he was appointed Assistant-Engraver to the Royal Mint,
and in 1775 Chief-Engraver, in succession to John Sigismund





Official medal for the Battle ot Culloden, 1746.



Tanner. He remained in office until his death which occurred on
3 . December 1779 (Gentleman's Magazine, 1779, p. 6 1 6). He was a
member of the Incorporated Society of Artists in 1760, and was
one of the foundation members of the Royal Academy, to whose
first two exhibitions he was a contributor, sending in 1740 a proof
impression of his five-guinea piece (Wroth, Diet. Nat. Biog., LXIII,
p. 321).

He first came into public notice in 1746, when he produced the
official medal for the battle of Culloden, a badge with an effective
ornamental border (Mayo, Medals, I, pi. 13, n 2; illustrated).

"In the same year", says Wroth, "Yeo issued by subscription
another Culloden medal, with a rather pretentious reverse, the
Duke of Cumberland as Hercules trampling upon Discord (illus-
trated) . This was sold in copper for half a guinea, in silver for one
guinea, and in gold for 'two guineas, for the 'Fashion'. Before pro-



702

ducing these medals Yeo had engraved a seal with the head of the
Duke of Cumberland, taken from the life.

But it is probable that Yeo engraved medals at an earlier date .
Several of the Vauxhall tickets are attributed to him, and if the
well-known 'Hogarth' ticket for Vauxhall is correctly assigned to

him, he must have begun to work as a medallist before May 1733,
the date when Jonathan Tyers presented Hogarth with the ticket in
question (Wroth, loc. cit., p. 321 ; W. Chaffers, Cat. of Fonnan
and Browne Collection, 1892, p. 175, n 3483).

* Yeo's small collection of coins and medals was sold by auction
at Langford's, Covent-garden, on 2 and 3 Feb. 1780, the sale includ-
ing his graving tools and colours for painting, among which (says
the Catalogue) is a quantity of his very curious and much esteemed
lake (crimson, scarlet, and yellow)' (Wroth, loc. cit., p. 321).

Yeo usually signed R. YEO and YEO .

" Owing to weak eyesight and other infirmities the new coinage
dies rendered necessary by the accession of George III. were
according to a memorial by Yeo, prepared by the latter ; but in any
case, it is probable that Tanner directed or superintended the model-
ling and engraving " (W . J . Hocking, Royal Mint Museum Cata-
logue, II, p. 26). It is therefore probable that many of the dies of
George III. which are ascribed to Tanner (q. z>.) are Yeo's
engraving .

703 -

of older mien and not so well executed as on Tanner's patterns.
Hawkins (Num Chron., 1851, p. 116) states that this coin is not
by Yeo, but on the other hand he assigns the Five Guinea piece
of 1773 to Yeo, which is given by other writers to Tanner.

Evidently he produced a Pattern Five Guinea piece in 1770 which
he exhibited at the Royal Academy

In Spink's Catalogue of the Montagu Collection, Pattern Five
Guinea pieces of 1770 and 1773 are ascribed to Yeo, probably on
the authority of Hawkins .

period of the glyptic art.

YOUNG AND DEAKIN (Brit.}. A firm of Die-sinkers, Engravers'
and Manufacturers of metal work, of Sheffield. They have been

YOUNG, B. T. (Bril.). Mr. W. J. Davis of Birmingham has com-
municated to me descriptions of two medals from his collection,
bearing the name of this Engraver. Both are in white metal ; the
first, dated 1831, commemorates the great hurricane which swept
over the islands of Barbadoes on the II th August of that year; the
other was struck on the Emancipation Act, 1834, a d bears the
name of Major General Sir Lionel Smith K.C.B., governor-gene-
ral of Barbadoes.

Although these medals have only legends and inscriptions on
either side, they show commendable work.

I presume B.T. Young to have been a Birmingham Die-sinker
of the first half of the nineteenth century, but have been unable to
obtain any information.

YOUNG, HENRY (Brit.'}. Dealer in Coins and Medals, last quar-
ter of the eighteenth century; resided at 18 LudgateSt., London.
He issued some varieties of a Penny Token, with inscription on

obv . H . YOUNG . DEALER . IN . COINS . N 1 8 . LUGDATE . ST . LONDON * .

Star of the Order of the Garter; fyL. Front view of St. Paul's.

YOUNG, MATTHEW (Brit.}. Son of Henry Young, and also a
Dealer in coins and medals. He was born on the 6 th October 1771,
and from youth became a collector of coins, though his father had
intended him to become a goldsmith. He resided for some years at
18 Lugdate Hill, but later removed to Tavistock St; died on 12 th
July 1837.

He is possibly best remembered as the issuer of Sixty Shilling
pieces of James VII. for Scotland, the dies for which had been
prepared according to an act of the Scottish Parliament, 14. June
1686, but from which no specimens were struck, until they came
into the possession of this dealer, who in 1828, caused 60 impressions
to be made, before they were defaced and deposited in the British
Museum. The dies were executed by Jan Rottier.

Young also caused specimens of the crown of James VIII. , 1716,
by Norbert Roettier, to be struck, no contemporary specimens ot
which are known to exist.

Mathew Young issued a Penny Token, 1798, engraved by
J. Milton, on which he describes himself as ' Goldsmith and Jeweller,
Dealer in Coins and Medals ancient and modern ; fyL Civitas
Londini; inscription on the edge : PROMISSORY PENNY TOKEN
PAYABLE ON DEMAND. Two varieties exist, one with the MATHEW
misspelt, which is very rare.

YOUNG, RICHARD (Brit.'). Goldsmith; Mint-master at Edinburgh,
1542.

YOUNG, ROBERT (Brit.} (1657-1700). Forger and cheat, claimed
to have been educated at Trinity College, Dublin; incurred



various terms of punishment. Having effected his escape from the
King's Bench prison on 12 Dec. 1698, Young seems to have turned
to coining for a livelihood and early in April 1700 he was arrested
for this offence and tried at the Old Bailey. He was found guilty
on 12. April, under the name of John Larkin, alias Young. The
"evidence against him", says a contemporary news-sheet, " were
two fellow-prisoners whom he had inveigled to assist him in the act
of coyning, with design to accuse them and to witness against
them, in hopes to purchase his liberty, but they turned evidence
against him, upon which he was condemned and executed, April
1700". (Dictionary of National Biography, Vol. 63, page 390.)

YOUNG AND SHEPPERD (Brit.}. A firm of Goldsmiths and Die-
sinkers of Calcutta. Issuers of the so-called ' Deccan ' medals, which
were given to native troops for service in the west of India and
Guzerat, 1778-84, and in the south of India, 1780-84. These
medals exist in two sizes. They present a figure of Britannia seated
on a military trophy on obv. and have on rev. a Persian inscription.

atthe Paris Salon in 1892, 1894, J 895, 1901, and again in 1914.
One of his best known portraits is that of Prince Milosch Obreno-
