Provenance: Duke of Northumberland Collection (before 1856); Sotheby Auction, 4 November 1982, lot 436 (to D. Miller); Acquired 1982
The catalogue of the ancestral coin collection owned by the Dukes of Northumberland was published in 1856. The work’s author, Rear-Admiral William Henry Smyth, recounted that the collection had, by that point, already been in the Duke’s family ‘for many years’. As Tom Eden notes in the introduction to the later Sotheby’s sale, ‘the collection was in existence certainly at the beginning of the nineteenth century and probably earlier. It may have been formed by the magnificent first Duke of Northumberland (1715-1786), whose fondness for ‘the arts and sciences’ is described by Louis Dutens, the traveller, author and numismatist who was in the Duke’s service for many years.’
