'''Sir Joseph Edgar Boehm, 1st Baronet''', {{Post-nominals|country=GBR|size=100%|RA}} (6 July 1834 – 12 December 1890) was an Austrian-born British [[medallist]] and sculptor, best known for the "[[Jubilee coinage|Jubilee head]]" of [[Queen Victoria]] on coinage, and the statue of the [[Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington|Duke of Wellington]] at [[Hyde Park Corner]]. During his career Boehm maintained a large studio in London and produced a significant volume of public works and private commissions. A speciality of Boehm's was the portrait [[Bust (sculpture)|bust]]; there are many examples of these in the [[National Portrait Gallery (London)|National Portrait Gallery]]. He was often commissioned by the [[British royal family|Royal Family]] and members of the aristocracy to make sculptures for their parks and gardens. His works were many, and he exhibited 123 of them at the [[Royal Academy]] from 1862 to his death in 1890.

Boehm was often commissioned by members of the aristocracy to make equestrian and equine sculptures for the parks and gardens of their stately homes. His large sculpture of the stallion [[King Tom (horse)|King Tom]] (1874) was commissioned by Baron [[Mayer Amschel de Rothschild]] for his new mansion, [[Mentmore Towers]] in 1873, and moved to [[Dalmeny House]] near Edinburgh in 1982.<ref name="Delmeny">{{Historic Environment Scotland|num=GDL00130|desc=Dalmeny |access-date=25 January 2021}}</ref><ref>{{Historic Environment Scotland|cat=PLA|num=50417|num2=NT17NE 37|desc=Edinburgh, Dalmeny House (Event ref: 613772)|access-date=18 June 2025}}</ref> His large animal works include the marble ''Young Bull and Herdsman'' (1887) and ''Saint George and the Dragon'' (1885), both of which were exhibited at the Melbourne Centennial International Exhibition during 1888 and 1889.<ref name="ScVic"/> Both remain in Australia, the former at The Royal Agricultural Society of Victoria, Melbourne. ''The Horse and His Master'' (1874), sometimes known as ''A Clydesdale Stallion Rearing'', in [[Malvern and Brueton Park]] in [[Solihull]] was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1874 and at the 1878 Paris [[Exposition Universelle (1878)|Universal Exposition]].<ref name="Horse"/><ref>{{cite web|url=https://archive.org/details/parisuniversalex00pari/page/46|title= Catalogue of British Fine Art Paris 1878|website=archive.org|year= 1878|access-date=1 July 2021}}</ref> The work was bought by the grandson of [[Alfred Bird]], Captain Oliver Bird for £300 in April 1944 and gifted to Solihull Council to place in one of their parks.<ref>The Birmingham Daily Post|16 March 1944 page 1</ref>
In 1869, Boehm's work came to the attention of Queen Victoria and he rapidly gained favour with the royal court.<ref name="eb1911" /><ref name="MappingJEB"/> In 1871, he executed a statue of Victoria, in marble for [[Windsor Castle]], which with the monument of the [[Prince Edward, Duke of Kent and Strathearn|Prince Edward]] in [[St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle|St. George's Chapel]] in [[Windsor Castle]], are considered his earliest great works.<ref name="eb1911" /><ref name="RCTgv">{{cite web| url=https://www.rct.uk/collection/search#/16/collection/35336/queen-victoria-1819-1901|title=Queen Victoria (1819-1901) Signed & dated 1871|website=Royal Collection Trust|access-date=2 August 2022}}</ref> In total, throughout his career, Boehm completed over forty royal commissions.<ref name="MappingJEB"/><ref name="ScVic">{{cite book|author=Martina Droth, Jason Edwards & Michael Hatt|publisher=Yale Center for British Art, Yale University Press|year=2014|title= Sculpture Victorious: Art in the Age of Invention, 1837–1901 |isbn=9780300208030}}</ref> He won several commissions to create statues of Victoria to mark her [[Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria|Golden Jubilee]], several of which were replica designs, which was a common and accepted practice at the time.<ref name="ScVic"/> Victoria made clear her approval of Boehm's work by unveiling his statues of her at Windsor and Balmoral which added to the appeal of his work to the local and colonial authorities who typically commissioned such monuments.<ref name="ScVic"/>

Boehm's designs were used on a series of medals minted to mark events in the Queen's reign.<ref>{{cite web|title=The life and work of Sir Joseph Edgar Boehm|url= https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215322|author=Mark Andrew Stocker|website=University of Hull|access-date=31 August 2025}}</ref> These included the [[Queen Victoria Golden Jubilee Medal|Golden Jubilee]], her [[Queen Victoria Diamond Jubilee Medal|Diamond Jubilee]] and for the [[Visit to Ireland Medal 1900]]. In 1887, Boehm designed and executed the model for the dies for a series of coins known as the [[Jubilee coinage]], commemorating the 50th anniversary of Queen Victoria's reign. The coins are signed J.E.B. below the shoulder. This design was severely criticised by his peers as well as the public and was replaced in 1893.<ref name="Forrer1904">{{cite book|title=''Biographical dictionary of medallists: coin, gem, and seal-engravers, mint-masters, &c., ancient and modern, with references to their works B.

As a result, the sixpences were frequently gilded and passed off as gold half sovereigns. Therefore, the sixpence reverted to its standard design.
