The meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this medal, from its decorative elements to the carefully crafted text. As we delve into history through this photograph, we are reminded not only of Guy Fawkes – one of the key figures behind the plot – but also King James I who narrowly escaped assassination on that fateful day.
