Frankish Imitative - `Constantine I` - Gold Victory Solidus5th century AD, imitating a solidus of Constantine I as Augustus (of 310 AD, Trier mint). Obv: CONSTAN-TINVS P F AVG (second N reversed) legend with laureate bust right. Rev: VOTIS .V. MVLTIS X legend with pellet each side of second V and Victory inscribing shield on cippus (VI/CTO/RIA/AVG in four lines shield inscription erased); mintmark PTR in exergue. For coin prototype see Sear 15786; RIC 821. 5.16 grams. Ex Belgian collection; ex Lanz Graz Auktion 1, 9 December 1972, lot 305 (9,000 schillings, with photocopy catalogue extract); ex Ernst Holzer collection, Graz, Austria. This imitative piece is of quite good style and is a generally faithful copy from the original Roman prototype with only the second N to the obverse legend being truly aberrant; the deliberate erasure of the inscription to the reverse shield is curious although this could possibly be the result of a former pin attachment or similar. Good very fine; scar from ancient pendant loop at top, shield inscription to reverse erased, small gouge to reverse right field. Extremely rare.
Anglo-Saxon Coins - Edmund - Northeastern Mint / Nother - Portrait Penny939-946 AD, BMC type vi. Obv: profile bust with +EADMVND REX legend with reverse-barred N. Rev: small cross with +NOÐERMONETAIIC.A. legend with first N reverse-barred and A inverted, for the moneyer Nother at an uncertain north-eastern mint. S. 1106 variant; N. 697 variant; see Blunt, Christopher, BNJ 40, pp.17-18, coin number 2 (for the moneyer); see Blunt, Lyon & Stewart, Coinage in Tenth Century England, 1989, p.197, number 268 (for the moneyer); see EMC 2014.0253 (this coin). Early Medieval Corpus, Cambridge, reference EMC 2014.0253. 1.20 grams. Found near Carlisle, UK, 2009. Coins of this type for a moneyer Nother are sometimes attributed to a mint at Bedford(?) with a `mint abbreviation` of BA (see references cited above for discussion) but this coin has an ending of IIC.A. (possibly for NCA?), with a pellet set high each side of the letter A; Bedford is a possible place of minting, along with Northampton, Huntingdon or Cambridge (although the legend is not a garbled mint signature for the latter); a further coin recorded of this moneyer, sharing the same obverse die, has a reverse reading that possibly ends IIIP (P inverted); the moneyer name also recorded for a few coins of Aethelstan and Eadred. Good very fine; edge slightly ragged, toned. Extremely rare; new reverse die.

See Early Medieval Corpus, Cambridge, reference EMC 2014.0258 (this coin). 0.66 grams. Found near Tilbury, UK, 2014. Round halfpennies are known, mostly from single specimens, for some ten mints (of about fifty-nine mints that struck under Henry I) at Hereford (Ailred), Lincoln (Lefric), London ([-]odred), Norwich (Thot and Turstan), Oxford (Aethelnoth), Sandwich (Adalbot, including a unique coin muled with a class 9 penny reverse), Wallingford (Osulf), Wilton (Aethelweard), Winchester (Alfwine, Godwine and Wigmund) and York (Forna/Foren); this specimen seems to be a new die pair for the moneyer Thodred at London mint; a moneyer of this name also struck pennies of several classes for Henry I at London. Very fine, near as struck; slight flatness in legends as usual, small flan crack associated with the official snick. Extremely rare as a type (sixteen examples listed in EMC); new dies.

S. 1313; N. 919; see EMC 2014.0261 (this coin). Early Medieval Corpus, Cambridge, reference EMC 2014.0261. 0.95 grams. Found near Bourne, Lincolnshire, UK, 2014.

The mintmark and date on this coin are not entirely clear; the Roman numerals M D L I (potentially for 1551) are evident but there seems to be enough space for the date to be M D L I I (1552) which date only applies to the Irish issue minted at Dublin; as the majority of the surviving examples are recorded on the 1552 Irish coins, the probablity is that this coin is from that series. Coin worn, sometime bent and straightened; countermark fair. Very rare.

Born in 1922 in Philadelphia, Walter has had a life-long passion for collecting. A long-time resident in London, he has now retired to New York and decided that the time has come to pass on the antiquities and coins he has collected over his lifetime. Walter acquired coins and artefacts that interested him, so his collection, although containing many lovely examples, also contains many affordable specimens. Much of the material has been unavailable to the market for 30 to 50 years. Walter hopes that the items he collected will now find new homes with the next generation of collectors.
