Lot 361
COINS, ASIAN TERRITORIES, DECIMAL CURRENCY, PROOFS, CEYLON George VI (1936-1952), Silver Proof 50-Cents, 1942 (KM 114). Uncirculated Proof, toned with quite a few small marks under the tone. ex RJ Ford collection, Singapore Coin Auction 19, 23 February 1995, lot 236, part It was the best that Dick Ford could find as well, making one wonder how rare this really is, especially for those who knew how fastidious Ford was for finding the best he possibly could and trading for better if the opportunity arose.
Lot 364
COINS, ASIAN TERRITORIES, DECIMAL CURRENCY, PROOFS, CEYLON Edward VII (1901-1910)/ Victoria (1837-1901), Unique Copper Four Piece Mule Set ¼-Cent, ½-Cent, Cent and 5-Cents, 1892, obv crowned bust of Edward VII to right, EDWARD VII KING & EMPEROR (obvs KM 100, 101, 102, Pn 8; revs KM 90, 91, 92, 93). Uncirculated Proofs, the ¼-Cent toned with a few light marks, the ½-Cent and Cent brilliant with subdued red, the 5-Cents toned with a few minor spots, a most impressive coin. (4) There were no large copper 5-Cents struck as proofs or pirculation strikes for Edward in Ceylon. The bust is crowned and as that on the regular coinage. Obviously someone with serious influence had this set struck, due to the work involved. Using the 1892 reverse dies would have saved some effort as they already existed. The large size 1904 5-Cent in the Remick sale (Spink auction 6009, 18 October 2006, lot 231) sold for £10,500 hammer.
Lot 376
COINS, ASIAN TERRITORIES, STRAITS SETTLEMENTS Victoria (1837-1901), Copper Proof ¼-Cent, 1872H (KM 7; Pr 211). Choice uncirculated with some mint red. One of the numerous pieces from the Heaton Mint Archive where most of them had toned. This seems to be a date where a number of different countries coins were kept in quantity. The trouble is that they were not kept with any care so most have spots and handling marks. Finding a choice brilliant example of this coin is as difficult though as finding choice examples of some dates with much lower mintages.
Lot 410
COINS, ASIAN TERRITORIES, STRAITS SETTLEMENTS Victoria (1837-1901), Silver 5-Cents, 1874H (KM 10; Pr 124). Gem uncirculated. ex Spink auction 160, 9 October 2002, lot 205, part There were six pieces of this date in the Heaton Archives, all gem uncirculated, as this piece. Surprisingly though, they havent shown up in more collections. Remicks was a 62 and Diana didnt have one. Ford probably had one due to his relationship with Spink, but the rest? We do have a record of a piece, ex Heaton Archive, sold for $700 in Singapore Coin Auction 30, 23 June 2000, lot 365.
Lot 418
COINS, ASIAN TERRITORIES, STRAITS SETTLEMENTS Victoria (1837-1901), Silver Proof 5-Cents, 1891 (KM 10; Pr 140). A few light handling marks, otherwise uncirculated Proof with moderate tone. This is the typical late 19th century proof where not as much care was taken in the striking of this coin but as a proof was struck every year for the British Mint, a few were called for outside of the mint and these pieces made it to collectors today.
Lot 538
COINS, ASIAN TERRITORIES, SUMATRA East India Company, Gilt-copper Proof 2-Kepings, AH1202 / 1787, value engraved as an Arabic denomination ? (3), but coin is the size and weight of a 2-Keping, edge right oblique milling, 25.5mm, 6.68g (Pr 13B; KM 261). Mint state proof, a few hairline but bright and attractive, struck with the same dies as the Proof in the previous lot.
Lot 548
COINS, ASIAN TERRITORIES, SUMATRA, PATTERNS AND BOULTON SAMPLES East India Company, Copper Pattern 3-Kepings, AH1202 / 1787, very similar to the currency coins but with the addition of beading inset around the edge and a raised rim, edge milled, 9.77g (Pr 23b; KM Pn11). Extremely fine, numerous light nicks to the obverse but the reverse is free of marks and shows off the proof characteristics of this coin.
Lot 686
COINS, WEST INDIES, BRITISH GUIANA William IV (1830-1837), Silver Proof Guilder, 1836, edge plain (Pr 14a; KM 25). Uncirculated proof, lightly hairlined and moderately toned. As one who likes to question the origins of a coin, I have two observations to make here. Firstly I am grateful that the smaller denominations were struck in proof or we would not have some of the dates in nice grade at all; Secondly, where are the larger denomination proofs?
Lot 723
COINS, WEST INDIES, BAHAMAS George III (1760-1820), Restrike Bronzed Copper Proof Penny, 1807, edge grained, die axis ?? unlike all the 1806 coins which are coin die axis (Pr 3; KM 1). Uncirculated Proof, light scratch down neck that looks as old as the coin because it is the same colour, a few light reverse spots. ex Edward Roehrs, DNW Auction 28 September 2011, lot 3016, with note says that three known. Curiosity makes this cataloguer want to figure out when this was struck. The engrailing is different on all three of these Bahamas Pennies that have engrailed edges. This piece is probably the crudest, in that they are just diagonal slits as opposed to the more ornate originals. The 1806 original proof has some die rust on the neck, while this appears to have been polished off on this piece, so the only rust we see on this piece is on the reverse, but not nearly as much as the 1806 restrike. The obverse of all of these pieces appear to be the same (besides the date), but the 1807 has an obvious difference in the tie at the back of the head, so could it have been a new die carefully prepared. It doesnt appear to be a repair of any sort, just slightly different, but that is really the only difference one can find, that cant be explained by die wear.
Lot 808
COINS, WEST INDIES, BRITISH HONDURAS Victoria (1837-1901), Bronze Proof Cent, 1894 (KM 1). Uncirculated Proof, moderately toned with a few very light marks. I cant imagine that there were 25 struck as stated in Krause. The Remick example was UNC with lustre but had a bad flan flaw that took away a great deal the appeal of the coin. Pridmore mentions a piece in the Royal Mint collection.
Lot 837
COINS, WEST INDIES, BRITISH HONDURAS Elizabeth II (1952- ), Bronze Cent, 1958 (KM 30). Brilliant uncirculated with almost full mint red and most unusual to find the coin this nice. The 1958 and 1959 1-cents must have gone quickly to British Honduras before there was a chance to gather a few for English collectors, making them so rare today.
Lot 875
COINS, WEST INDIES, BRITISH HONDURAS Victoria (1837-1901), Silver 25-Cents, 1894 (KM 9). In NGC holder graded PF64, not a proof but it is prooflike with a nicely frosted bust of Victoria. The 1894 does come prooflike in EF, give or take. It is very different in appearance to the obvious Proofs of the 1894 1-, 5- and 10-Cent in this sale. It doesnt make a big difference in pricing as either as a Proof or a choice UNC. It is still a very important type coin. For the really fussy, this has a number of light marks in front of the Queens face, so perhaps a MS63 would be more appropriate, still the finest I have seen.
Lot 1080

Mint state FDC and of the highest rarity. mintage 461 Known in Italian as the “Stemmino”, this coin with a quasi-mythical appeal is missing from almost every serious collection.
