Thanks Nellie, I've never seen QV's miniatures, although I have seen the William IV buckles. Now that you mention them, I remember that they were used instead of family orders.
I guess QV did not want to be associated with George IV, so would not want to wear his order, and William's buckles don't easily lend themselves to wearing. Makes sense.
