Full, round and toned, very fine £150-£200 --- Provenance: Bt A.D. Hamilton October 1980
David II (1329-1371), Second coinage, Class A, Groat, class A01, Edinburgh, mm. cross pattée, small young bust, tressure of seven arcs, nothing in spandrels, saltire stops, ornate v in david, 4.64g/9h (SCBI 35, 364, same obv. die; B 8, fig. 254, same obv. die; S 5091). Better than very fine, toned, very rare £300-£400 --- Provenance: Bt Spink May 1987 Lord Stewartby updated his original listing of Class A Groats in ‘The Scottish Coinage’ in the following articles - ‘Unpublished Scottish Coins II’ (NC 1956) and ‘A 14th Century Hoard of Scottish Groats from Balleny Townland Co. Down’ (BNJ 1964), pointing out features which suggested that certain groats should be positioned very early in the series, perhaps right at the start. The vendor has designated such groats as A01-A03. The current specimen has three such features, (a) the ornate letter U used to represent the V of king’s name, (b) the tressure of seven arcs which appears to be an early experimental feature and soon abandoned and (c) a very large central pellet in the head of the sceptre. The obverse die of this coin is as Balleny Townland Hoard no. 1. Many of the early dies vary considerably in detail from one to another, suggesting die-cutters were innovating and experimenting before later settling on a formula for a sustained production run.
David II (1329-1371), Second coinage, Class B, Groat, class B3a, Edinburgh, mm. cross pattée, second intermediate bust, tressure of six arcs, nothing in spandrels, crosslet stops after david and rex, double crosslet after dei and scotorvm, nothing after gra, reversed d under second l of vill, ornate as both sides, 3.94g/2h (SCBI 35, –; B 23, fig. 282, same obv. dies; S 5097).

SCBI 35, 425-7 and B 43, fig. 306, for similar rev. dies; S 5125). Surfaces marked, fine, both obverse and reverse varieties very rare £120-£150 --- Provenance: Bt M. Senior October 2005 The single crosslet stops appear on only a few obverse dies dating from very late in the reign.
Robert II (1371-1390), Groat, Phase 3/2 mule, Edinburgh, mm. cross pattée, normal ‘Robert II’ head, tressure of six arcs, trefoils in spandrels, cross on sceptre-handle, nothing behind head, line below bust, double crosslet stops, nothing after scottorv, crescent and crosslet after dns, reads ptector me, plain a both sides, 3.87g/9h (Richardson p.55, 3; SCBI 35, –; B – fig. –; S 5131 var.).

Tiny mark on forehead, good very fine and attractively toned, rare £300-£400 --- Provenance: Bt Stanley Gibbons July 1978 The vendor points out that there is only on specimen from this obverse die in the NMS Collection. There was no example in the Lockett Collection. The reverse die reading lib etor x ms is the only class A reverse die with this reading known to the vendor.
James V (1513-1542), Second coinage, Groat, Holyrood Abbey mint, type IIIb (i), bust right with mantle and corded chain, single-arched crown, eight jewels to band, strawberry-leaf decorations, no numeral after iacobvs, rev. shield with rounded base, cross-ends C, pelleted v in oppidv, no contraction after r of edinbvrgi, trefoil stops both sides, 2.72g/9h (SCBI 35, 931, same obv. die; SCBI 58, 60; SCBI 71, 373; B 10, fig. 713, same obv. die; S 5378). Very fine, the variety without numeral very rare £500-£600 --- Provenance: Noble Numismatics Pty Auction 111A (Sydney), 5-8 April 2016, lot 1708
Charles II (1649-1685), First coinage, Merk, 1674, type III, f below bust, 6.31g/12h (D 25; M 21; SCBI 35, –; B 13, fig. –; S 5612). Fine and rare £100-£150 --- Provenance: J.K.R. Murray Collection, Spink Auction 57, 29 April 1987, lot 390 (part); DNW Auction 104, 5 December 2012, lot 718 (part) Discrepancies arise between the estimated strike suggested by the Mint Registers for this issue and the number of surviving coins. It would seem likely that many of the coins produced during 1674 were struck using old 1673-dated dies. It is not known why the F mintmark for Sir John Falconer was reintroduced at this time to replace the leaved thistle mark.
Robert III (1390-1406), Heavy coinage, First issue, Groat, Edinburgh, mm. cross potent, tressure of seven arcs, trefoils on cusps, lis and crescent stops, rev. three pellets in quarters of cross, lis and crescent stops after dns, villa and rgh, r over s in ptector, 2.92g/4h (cf. SCBI 35, 553-9 for rev.; SCBI 72, 107, same dies; B 10, fig. 353; S 5164A). Slightly small of flan but full weight, very fine or better £200-£300 --- Provenance: Bt Spink June 2000 The obverse of this coin is distinctive in that it has a rounded face unlike the normal bust for the series. The vendor knows of no other die which shows this face.
Robert III (1390-1406), Heavy coinage, Second issue, Groat, Perth, mm. cross potent, tressure of eight arcs (one very indistinct below bust), trefoils on some cusps, nothing on breast, trefoil stops, rev. three pellets in quarters of cross, saltire and pellet stops after dns, p, ms, villa and de, 2.70g/12h (SCBI 35, 574 same obv. die; SCBI 72, 231-2 and B 17, fig. 361, same dies; S 5170). Obverse about very fine and slightly double struck, reverse good very fine, toned £200-£260 --- Provenance: Bt Mayfair Coin Co July 1979 Although referred to as the ‘Second issue’, these early Perth Groats were probably struck concurrently with the Edinburgh three-pellet series; the two mints operating quite separately at the time. The Perth coinage had a somewhat experimental look at this period, with details changing from die to die. This is the only known obverse with trefoil stops.
James V (1513-1542), Second coinage, Groat, Holyrood Abbey mint, type IIIc (iii), bust right with mantle and smooth chain, single-arched crown, seven jewels to band, strawberry-leaf decorations, ‘squarer’ hair style, letter a with bar at upper left, rev. shield with rounded base, cross-ends E, pelleted v in oppidv, no contraction after r of edinbvrgi, trefoil stops both sides, 2.58g/8h (SCBI 35, –; SCBI 58, –; SCBI 71, 393; B –, fig. –; S 5378). Good fine, the variety very rare £300-£400 --- Provenance: DNW Auction 163, 18-19 September 2019, lot 1754 The vendor notes three obverse dies with this distinctive barred A.
James I (1406-1437), First Fleur-de-lis issue, Groat, Edinburgh, type III, mm. cross pattée, tressure of eight arcs, lis on neck, crosses on each shoulder, saltire to left of bust, i to right and on sceptre handle. reads iacobvs and tracia, rev. lis with pellet in first quarter, lis with saltire in third, three pellets with small central pellet in second and fourth quarters, quarter, centre of cross unclear, lis stops both sides, 2.37g/5h (SCBI 35, –; SCBI 72, 479; B 22, fig. 460, same obv. die; S 5195). Striking split at 2 o’clock and surfaces lightly scratched, otherwise good fine, an extremely rare variety £240-£300 --- Provenance: Dr J. Davidson Collection, Part II, DNW Auction 60, 9-10 December 2003, lot 398; DNW Auction 78, 19 June 2008, lot 526 Three crown punches were in use throughout the issue of type III (Burns style III). Crown 1 was used for most of the issue. Crown 2 was used on only one die with the sceptre to the king’s left and has not been traced on any other die. Crown 3 occurs on four dies produced at the end of the issue (including this one). Although infrequently used the central lis of this crown quickly broke, as can be seen on this coin. This crown could have been composite. The vendor has not traced any other example of this obverse die except for the Burns coin.

Good very fine and toned but some double striking and haymarking on King’s face, rare £300-£400 --- Provenance: Bt Spink November 1987 The vendor notes that this is a rare obverse die, coupled with only three reverses, this one, Burns fig. 251 and SCBI 35, 361.
William the Lion (1165-1214), Short Cross and Stars coinage, Phase A, Sterling, Phase A, Roxburgh, Raul, bust left, le rei wi· lam, rev. ravl· on· roce·, short voided cross, four stars of six points in angles, 1.46g/6h (SCBI 35, –; B 3b figs. 42C; S 5027).

B 16, fig. 143 for obv.; S 5052). Very fine or better and toned but reverse a little double-struck, very rare, especially in this condition £150-£200 --- Provenance: From the Middridge (Co Durham) Hoard, 1974; DNW Auction 92, 21 June 2011, lot 296 The vendor is of the opinion that Be is the rarest of the class B varieties, with most known specimens being in relatively worn condition.

David II (1329-1371), Second coinage, Class C, Class C1, Groat, class C1, Edinburgh, mm. cross pattée, third intermediate bust, tressure of six arcs and a small segment, nothing in spandrels, double crosslet stops, nothing after scotorvm, plain a both sides, 4.27g/7h (SCBI 35, 385, same obv. die; cf. B 26, fig. 288; S 5098). About very fine, dark tone £200-£260 --- Provenance: Bt M. Vosper December 2005 Classes A and B are very closely connected, as are Classes C and D. It is likely that the former were produced under James Mulekyn, while the latter were produced under Bonagius of Florence who arrived in Edinburgh from Edward III’s mint at Durham c. 1364.
