Brown records this charming series as having five individual medals, including two with the portrait of Victoria, but with differeing reverses - "Europe's Pride (BHM 1905) and "England's Pride" (BHM 1906). Evidently however this pillbox only holds space for four medals, with the latter mentioned evidently being an interchangeable token with the example presented today.
