Lot 1009
British Late Iron Age, an excessively rare uninscribed gold hybridised quarter stater of the Southern Region/Regni and Gallic Bellovaci, probably dating c. 60-50 BC. 'Eye Star' type. Obverse: oblique wreath with 'eye' motif, star above. Reverse: triple-tailed horse prancing right, 'solar' motif between legs, pellet-in-annulet below. Very Fine, the reverse slightly weak. An extremely important coin, published in the 2018 BNJ 'Coin Register'. Diameter: 14.6mm. Weight: 1.26g. Compare Délestree 265-278 for the continental prototypes.Discussion: this coin represents only the second known of its type, the first discovered near Wareham, Dorset, in 1989 (CCI 10989). However, these coins appear to have been struck from different reverse dies. It appears that this coin represents a combination of indigenous Regnian issues with the 'a l'astre' type staters and quarter-staters struck by the Bellovaci during the Gallic wars (Sills 2017, p. 179). Provenance: found St Mary Bourne, Hampshire, 2018. Recorded on the PAS as HAMP-2D8ACC. Refernece: Sills, J. 2017. Divided Kingdoms: The Iron Age Gold Coinage of Southern England. Aylsham: Chris Rudd
Lot 1011
British Late Iron Age, an inscribed gold stater attributed to Cunobelin of the Eastern Region/Trinovantes and Catavellaunii, dating c. AD 10-20. Die-variant of Rudd's 'Cunobelinus Linear' type. Obverse: five-eared stalk of wheat dividing inscription CA/MV, saltire in field above the 'V'. Reverse: horse prancing right, branch flanked by two pellets above back, CVN between legs. Mint of Camulodunum. An exceptional reverse strike, though slightly off flan. Minor scrapes to reverse. Good Very Fine. Diameter: c. 18mm. Weight: 5.44g. ABC 2774.Discussion: most examples of this distinctive coin struck for Cunobelin do not have field marks on the reverse, the positioning of which varies. A scarce variant, only one other example found on 'wildwinds'. Provenance: ex A Smith collection.
Lot 1014
British Late Iron Age, an uninscribed debased silver/billon stater of the Southwestern region/Durotriges, dating c. 50-20 BC. Rudd's 'Cranborne Chase' type. Obverse: devolved bust of Apollo right, composed of 'wreath' and 'cloak' patterns. Reverse: stylised horse and charioteer left. About Fine. Pleasing greyish tone, struck on nicely rounded flan. Diameter: c. 17.5mm. Weight: 3.49g. ABC 2157, BMC 2525-2546.Discussion: the highly stylised obverse and reverse designs on this coin are very loosely derived from those on silver and gold Macedonian coinage of the late 4th/early 3rd century BC. Copied widely across Europe, this 'down the line' transmitting of the design appears to have reached Britain in the mid 1st century BC. Provenance: ex A Smith collection.
Lot 1016
Roman, a copper-alloy radiate struck for the Britannic Emperor Carausius (AD 286-293) dating to c. AD 286-293. Obverse: IMP CARAVSIVS PF AVG, radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right. Reverse: PM TR P COS, Roma seated left on shield holding spear and Palladium. No mintmark. Very Fine, pleasing brownish patina with some deposits. Diameter: 23mm. Weight: 3.8g. Unpublished, unique.Discussion: this coin is a unique variant on the very rare reverse series issued by Carausius, usually inscribed PM TR P COS III/IIII COS PP. Provenance: from the collection of a metal detectorist.
Lot 1019
Roman, an unpublished silver denarius struck for the Britannic emperor Carausius (AD 286-293) dating to c. AD 286-293. Obverse: IMP CARAVSIVS PF AVG, laureate, draped and cuirassed bust right. Reverse: FORTVNA AVG, Fortuna seated left feeding snake rising from altar. Unattributed mint. Very Fine, flan slightly angular. Unique. Diameter: 22mm. Weight: 5.5g. Discussion: this coin is unique, no other example known to exist. The best parallel for it comes in the form of a copper-alloy radiate with a reverse type depicting Salus in a similar seated attitude, though this piece was minted at Londinium and probably is from the earlier part of Carausius’ reign. Provenance: found Compton, West Berkshire, 1990s. Recorded on the PAS as SUR-07BF6A.
Lot 1027
Roman, a silver denarius struck for Tiberius (AD 14-37) dating to c. AD 14-37. Obverse: TI CAESAR DIVI AVG F AVGVSTVS, laureate bust right. Reverse: PONTIF MAXIM, Pax seated right holding long sceptre and palm. Mint of Lugdunum (Lyon). About Very Fine. Diameter: 19mm. Weight: 3.9g. RIC vol. I, no. 30.Discussion: this coin is often quoted as being the famous Biblical 'tribute penny' mentioned in the Gospel of Matthew (Chapter 22, verses 17-21). However, it is only one option out of several potential candidates.Provenance: from the collection of a metal detectorist.
Lot 1052

Reverse: beaded rectangular standard enclosing rather crudely-styled inscription 'TOTII', off-centre pellet in bottom field. About Very Fine, some pitting with greenish deposits on reverse. Diameter: c. 11mm. Weight: 0.91g. A comparable example published by Abramson (2006), see fig. E130. Discussion: base metal deposits on reverse probably reflect some debasement, small fissure in side of coin seems to show solid core. Provenance: ex A Smith collection. Reference: Abramson, T. 2006.

Lot 1080
Medieval, silver groat of Edward IV's first reign (1461-1470), dating c. 1464-1470. Light coinage, type VII, initial marks: crown/crown. Mint of London.

Lot 1082
Earlier Medieval, silver penny of Stephen (1135-1154) dating c. 1150/1153-1158. 'Awbridge' type, probably moneyer WULFWINE at the mint of London. Obverse: +[.....]E, crowned and mantled bust three-quarters left, holding sceptre. Reverse: +DVLF[.......]VN:, short voided cross within quatrefoil, fleur in each angle. About Fine for issue, struck on characteristically irregular flan. Scarce. Moneyer's name apparently mis-spelled. Diameter: 17.5mm. Weight: 1.35g. N881, BMC VII. Discussion: the 'Awbridge' type (named after the 1902 discovery of 180 pence corresponding to this type and Henry II's 'Tealby' issue in the Hampshire village of the same name) is thought to represent Stephen's last issue, also struck posthumously in his name for the first four years of Henry II's reign before his great yet much maligned re-coinage of 1158. This coin has tentatively been attributed to Wulfwine at the London mint based on the presence of the obverse initial cross before the first letter of the mis-spelled moneyer's name and the surviving portion of what appears to be the mint signature. Provenance: ex A Smith collection.
Lot 1083
Medieval, a silver penny of Henry IV (1399-1413), light coinage issue of c. 1412-1413. Initial mark: cross pattée. Archiepiscopal mint of Durham under Archbishop Thomas Langley. Obverse: +h[......]NGLIE, crowned bust facing with trefoil on breast. Reverse: CIVI/.TAS/[DVN/OLM] (pellet before the 'T' of 'TAS'), long cross quartering coin, three pellets in each angle within inner pelleted border. About Fine, though heavily clipped. Very rare. Diameter: 15mm. Weight: 0.63g. N1365.Provenance: ex A Smith collection.
Lot 1098
Post-Medieval, debased silver groat of Henry VIII (1509-1547) dating c. 1547-1549. Posthumous issue under Edward VI, Tower mint. Initial mark: martlet. Obverse: hENRIC.8.D.G.AGL.FRA.Z[....]REX, crowned bust threequarter-facing. Reverse: POSVI/DEV.A/DIVTOR/E.MEV, cross fourchée quartering Royal Arms. Nearly Very Fine for issue, struck on slightly irregular flan. Golden/coppery tones abounding, some pitting on both faces. Scarce, with a solid provenance. Diameter: 25mm. Weight: 2.04g. N1871. Discussion: this coin was previously sold as a 'cast contemporary copy', though the present cataloguer can find no evidence for casting and suggests that a Tudor forger would be more likely to copy an official coin in plated base metal than poor quality silver. The style, equally, is well in line with other officially issued Tower groats of the period. Henry VIII's debasing of the coinage in his final/posthumous issues lead to the arising of the nickname 'Old Coppernose'. Based on the appearance of this coin, it is easy to understand how this unofficial title came to arise.Provenance: ex A Smith collection, ex Ray Inder collection (bt. DNW, see auction 155, lot 6).

An interesting piece worthy of further specialist research. Pierced twice in antiquity and subsequently plugged. Diameter: c. 22mm. Weight: 1.95g. Provenance: ex A Smith collection.
