Lot 185
*Henry VIII, Third Coinage (1544-47), testoon, m.m. lis / two lis, reads henric’ viii di’ gra’ agl’fra’ z hib’ rex, facing bust, rev., crowned rose with crowned h – r at sides, 6.85g (cf. N. 1841; cf. S. 2364), a genuine coin in relatively good silver which has been skilfully tooled and worked to produce an idealised portrait of the aging King, neatly pierced for suspension as a pendant
Lot 22
*Kings of Kent, Anonymous Portrait penny, c. 822-25, Canterbury, with moneyer’s name Swefherd on both sides, obv., bust right wearing bonnet, svvefherd moneta, rev., drvr cits in two lines within inner circle, legend starting at 9 o’ clock svvefherd monet, 1.37g (Naismith C55.3a, this coin; cf. N. 222/1; cf. S. 879), very fine, of the highest rarity and interest. Naismith discusses this coin at some length (p. 126, footnote 92), pointing out that it is evidently a mule between the ‘Anonymous Phase’ obverse portrait type and a reverse which became standard during the reign of Baldred (823-25). It may be observed that there is some evidence of die rust on the obverse of the piece, perhaps lending some weight to Naismith’s second suggestion that Swefherd used an old die as an emergency measure when a portrait die of Baldred broke.
Lot 30
*Kings of all England, Aethelstan, Circumscription Cross penny, Nottingham, moneyer Ethelnoth, struck from two different reverse dies: (a) + edel[no]elnod on snotencep, (b) +edlede[d] (?) on snotecemi, 1.58g (cf. N. 672 and note 255; cf. S. 1093), both legends slightly blundered or double-struck, very fine, interesting and extremely rare. North records another Nottingham coin bearing two reverses, one side naming Ethelnoth and the other naming Osulf, also recorded as a Nottingham moneyer, Osulf.
Lot 344
Augustus (27 BC-AD 14), denarius, Caesaraugusta, c. 19-18 BC, head left wearing oak wreath, rev., divvs ivlivs, comet of eight rays with tail at top, 3.59g (RIC 37b; BMC 326; S. 1607), toned, edge marks, obverse banker’s mark, good very fine. This is the ‘Julian star’ which appeared in the sky after Caesar’s assassination in 44 BC, and the inscription on the coin shows how it was taken as a sign of his divinity.
Lot 431
Eastern European imitative gold quinarius in the name of Clodius, imp clodio avgvs, laureate and draped bust left, rev., concordi, Fortuna standing left with rudder and cornucopia, 2.24g (for similar imitative gold coins see Sergeev, A, Barbarian coins of the Territory between the Balkans and Central Asia, Moscow, 2012, pp. 76-78 – and no. 225 for a quinarius), with original loop for suspension, virtually as struck, apparently unpublished, very rare. Imitative coins like this and in the following two lots are virtually always found either with loops for mounting or with piercings and it may well be that their prime purpose was as coin jewellery rather than as a barbarous currency.
Lot 547
Mary, Queen of Scots (1542-67), First Period, portrait half-ryal or 30 shilling piece, 1555, bust left, rev., ivstvs fide vivit, crowned Scottish shield, 3.79g / 58.49 gr. (Murray, NC 1979, p. 162, 1B, this coin recorded; Burns p. 291, 8 and fig. 822.2; S. 5398), has been mounted and worn but of good weight, about fine and very rare. Ex Christie’s, 8 October 1974, lot 51; previously ex Bearman and Virgil Brand Collections and Glendining auction, 7 July 1948, lot 35. In 1979 J.K.R. Murray wrote that the four coins from these dies which were known to him ‘may be forgeries’ (NC 1979, p. 157), a suggestion followed by Bateson & Mayhew in noting ‘?forgery by Jons’ when describing the Ashmolean’s example in 1987 (SCBI 35, 998/A; ex Alderman Hird Collection). Joan E.L. Murray, in discussing the forger Jons of Dunfermline (The First Gold Coinage of Mary Queen of Scots, in BNJ 1979, pp. 82-86), is unspecific on the point while the ex ‘Dundee’ Collection (Spink/Bowers & Ruddy, 1976, lot 125) specimen, acquired later by LaRiviere and again sold by Spink (29 March 2006, lot 102) was unchallenged. Also in 2006 Holmes, in compiling SCBI 58, remarks that the National Museums of Scotland example (no. 280) was ‘at one time thought to be false’. Prospective purchasers are advised to form their own judgment regarding the status of the coin which is, under the circumstances, offered as viewed.
Lot 722
South Africa, Z.A.R., Kruger, pond, 1898/99, PCGS AU55, dated 1898 with “99” countermarked below bust (Hern Z52; KM 10.2), bagmarked overall and with a few surface scuffs and scratches, good extremely fine and surfaces retaining some original brilliance, very rare [130 reported to have been struck and so countermarked], in PCGS holder graded AU55. In 1899, new dies for the 1899 Kruger ponde were on the way to Pretoria when they were seized by the British in Lourenço Marques. To mark the wartime re-opening of the Mint it was decided to overstamp some 1898-dated coins with a ‘99’ below Kruger’s bust. The very first coin to be processed was reportedly stamped with a single 9 but a further 130 are recorded as having been stamped with a pair of smaller nines, as here.
Lot 73
*Stephen (1135-54) and Matilda, Ornamented Coinage of York (c. 1140-50), penny, obv., standing figures facing of King Stephen in full armour and Queen Matilda with her hair long, holding between them a tall sceptre, rev., cross fleury over saltire cross pommée, legend replaced with ornaments, 0.89g (Mack type 5, 220 (this coin recorded as Mack 220(q)); N. 922; S. 1315), significant portion of legend missing (from 3 o’ clock to 7 o’ clock on obverse), fine to very fine and very rare
Lot 74
*Stephen, Baronial Issue of Eustace Fitzjohn, penny, York, obv., evst acivs+, full figure of Knight wearing mail armour and a pointed helmet facing right, holding raised sword, with pellet in annulet either side of helmet and before sword hilt, shaped ornament in field behind, rev., eboraci . tdefг, single pellet in annulet stop, cross pattée with barred arms within quatrefoil, annulets in spandrels, 1.15g (Mack 221-222 (see note below); N. 929(a); S. 1316), very minor rim fault, virtually as struck, an iconic and excessively rare coin of the Anarchy. Mack illustrates three coins as his reference no. 221, of which 221(c) and 221 (d) are struck from the same die as the present coin, with normal s’s in evstacivs. However the reverse is as Mack 222 (= B.M.C. 265), displaying very minor differences but the same characteristic legend. It may further be noted that Mack’s reference no. 224(d) as coming from the Archbishop Sharp collection appears to be erroneous and that this remarkably well-preserved coin was probably the piece he intended to record. The ‘Yorkshire magnate’ Eustace Fitzjohn supported Stephen early in his reign, although Stephen deprived him of his custody of Bamburgh Castle in February 1138 on the grounds that his allegiance was leaning towards the Empress Matilda. Eustace sided with King David of Scotland at the Battle of the Standard in August where he may have been wounded, being described in contemporary chronicles as ‘that one-eyed traitor’, but he does seem later to have become reconciled to Stephen’s rule. Coincidentally Archbishop Sharp and his successors were closely associated with Bamburgh Castle which had been severely damaged during the Wars of the Roses. In particular Dr John Sharp (1723-1792), Archdeacon of Northumberland, grandson of the Archbishop and custodian of his collection, was responsible for major refurbishment work at Bamburgh Castle in the late 18th Century.
Lot 751
Spanish Colonial, Viceroyalty of Peru, pillar type 8 reales, 1765, Santiago mint, assayer j, die axis ??, 26.51g (Calicó 1004, ‘Rarísima’), some flan imperfections as usual for early Santiago silver, edge drilled at top and bottom to allow swivel-mounting into a brooch (enabling display of either side), otherwise generally very fine and excessively rare. This is a recently re-discovered example of the 1765 j pillar 8 reales, of which very few specimens are known to have survived. It may be noted that the coin is struck from the same obverse die as the piece sold by Áureo & Calicó, 29 November 2012, lot 100, and from a similar reverse die. The old silver brooch-mount made to carry the coin is also included in the lot (see illustration below).
Lot 94
*Edward I, New Coinage, a cast piedfort penny, London, apparently class 10ab, obv., edwar r angl dns hyb, rev., civi tas lon don, 8.27g / 127.6 grains, thickness 3mm (cf. N. 1039; S. 1409B), of coarse style and worn in the manner of other known pieces of this kind, extremely rare. See L.A. Lawrence, English Piedforts and Their Purposes, B.N.J. XVI, 1921-22. Lawrence noted several piedfort halfpennies of class 10 with weights of about 30 grains (also cf. Spink auction 28 June 2016, lot 813), as well as Lincoln (class IIIC) and Canterbury (class XI) pennies weighing 64 grains and 66 grains respectively. Whilst the precise status of the present cast coin (which, at 3mm, is very thick in comparison to other known examples) remains uncertain, it is interesting to find it included in the Archbishop Sharp collection.
