Reverse: Saint George mounted on rearing horse over cowering dragon. 'CROWN 1935' above. Artist: Percy Metcalfe. Edge: raised lettering reading: '* DECUS ET TUTAMEN * ANNO REGNI XXV'. Comes in the original Royal Mint card box of issue. Mintage: 2,500. Composition: 925 silver. Weight: 28.28g. Diameter: 38.61 millimetres.1935 marked King George's Silver Jubilee. The Royal Mint celebrated 25 years of his reign with a special commemorative Crown, an ancestor to today's collectable Five Pound coins. These Jubilee Crowns feature an Art Deco-inspired reverse, a modernist reinterpretation of the classic St George and the dragon motif. The saint's warhorse looks a little like a child's rocking horse, leading some collectors to refer to these 1935 coins as 'Rocking Horse Crowns'. This iconic design is the work of English artist and sculptor, Percy Metcalfe, who also designed the first coinage of the Irish Free State. The standard .500 silver 1935 Crown is fairly common but proof versions, struck in .925 sterling silver, were also offered by The Royal Mint, including about 2,500 that bear raised edge lettering, rather than the standard incuse engraving. The edge bears the classic 'DECUS ET TUTAMEN' lettering ('an ornament and a safeguard') as well as the regnal year that the coin was struck in: 'XXV' (25). The regnal year is the year of the reign of a monarch. It was common on earlier Crown coins to stamp the regnal year on the edge as a security feature to discourage the edge of the coin from being clipped off to salvage scrap metal.
Lot 173
1817 King George III silver Halfcrown coin with Benedetto Pistrucci 'Bull Head' portrait (S 3788, ESC 616). Obverse: large laureate head of King George III facing right, known as the 'Bull Head'.

Reverse: crowned ornate shield of royal arms, smaller shield in the centre, all within a garter inscribed 'HONI · SOIT · QUI · MAL · Y · PENSE ·'. Large crown on top, tiny St George below. Engraver: Thomas Wyon. Legend around: 'BRITANNIARUM REX FID: DEF:'. Mintage: 3,235,239. Composition: 925 silver. Weight: 14.12g. Diameter: 32mm.This silver coin features a short-lived portrait of King George III, used only on 1816 and some 1817-dated Haflcrowns.The obverse design is the work of Italian artist Benedetto Pistrucci and shows a thick-necked, bulbous bust of the elderly George wearing a wreath of laurel leaves. While it may have been an accurate portrayal of the obese King it was much derided by the British press. Similarly meaty portraits were used on a limited number of Shillings and Sixpences.Pistrucci blamed the poor reception on the Royal Mint's craftsmen who had engraved his portrait model for coinage. The experience prompted Pistrucci to learn the art of steel engraving for himself. He subsequently created the classic St George and the dragon motif, used on the reverse of the first modern gold Sovereigns and regarded as a triumph of coinage design.
Lot 486
