Lot 254

UNITED KINGDOM. Lot of 9 gold coins.Coin 1: Victoria, 1837-1901, Half-Sovereign 1890. London. No JEB Low shield DISH L511. Mintage: 2,243,200. 19.3 mm. 3.99 g. 917/1000 Gold. (AGW=0.1176 oz.)No half sovereigns were struck in 1888 and 1889 in an attempt to steer the public towards greater use of silver coins, which were less prone to wear than the half-sovereign and so more cost-effective. The double-florin (4 shillings) piece was produced 1887-1890 to offset for the half-sovereign shortage, but weighs 22.6 grams and measures 36 mm. The public was not happy about carrying around the equivalent value of the widely used half-sovereign (10 shillings) in silver coins. Production of half sovereigns recommenced in 1890 with 2,266,023 coins.Having experienced lots of issues with the Jubilee coinage in the run-up to the Queen’s Jubilee, the Mint continued making tweaks to the design in the following years. To improve metal flow, the reverse shield was redesigned and moved slightly lower (sometimes called wide date as the lower part of the shield pushed the date further apart). However, the Mint continued using the high shield dies from 1887 production runs until 1892, the later ones being very rare (1891 is ultra-rare). For 1890, both types are common, the new lower shield type coins slightly more prevalent than the high shield.Coin 2: Victoria, 1837-1901, Half-Sovereign 1885. London.

UNITED KINGDOM. Elizabeth II, 1952-2022. Silver 5 pounds, 2019. Royal Mint. Proof. The Queen depicted as Una and the Lion was a controversial design issued at a time of great uncertainty. Victoria had only just turned 18 when she became Queen and Empress of the world's leading empire at the time, with dominions scattered around the globe. All eyes were on her to deliver the huge task of leading the empire to future prosperity. The depiction of Victoria as Lady Una, calmly directing the enormous beast by her side, the Lion (representing England), was a clever analogy, using the characters from Edmund Spenser's poem The Faerie Queene (written in 1590). It was the first time in history a British monarch was depicted on a coin as a fictional character.As part of the Great Engravers series the coin offered here has caused equal amounts of admiration and frustration due to the low mintage and low-profile marketing from the Royal Mint. The mintage being just 225 pieces, it was immediately sold out and shortly thereafter coins were selling for multiples of the issue price on the secondary market. The Una and the Lion design is perhaps the most iconic of all British coin designs. The original 5 Pound piece struck for Queen Victoria in 1839 has been one of the best performers of all British investment coins but its performance now eclipsed by its modern version, leaving most collectors with little chance of ever getting one. This will be one to keep for the future.Fifth, crowned head of Queen Elizabeth II right; JC below; ELIZABETH II · D · G · REG · FID · DEF · 5 POUNDS ·.

Striking split at 11 o’clock, minor stress marks and some peripheral weakness, otherwise very fine with a strong royal portrait, extremely rare £4,000-£5,000 --- Provenance: found near Southfleet, Kent, on 17 October 2022 (EMC 2022.0377) Examined and tested by Arent Pol, the coin produced a specific gravity figure of 12.58, which translates to a fineness of approximately 35%. Childebert the Adopted’s short reign was borne of scheming and intrigue. As Grierson summarises in the introduction to MEC 1, ‘[f]rom 642 onwards to his death in 656 [the Frankish king Sigebert III] reigned in the shadow of his Mayor of the Palace, Grimoald… Having for long been childless, Sigebert adopted Grimoald’s son and gave him the royal name of Childebert. Subsequently he had a son of his own, the future Dagobert II. When Sigebert died, Grimoald set aside Dagobert and installed his own son as king, a usurpation which came to an abrupt end when a Neustrian conspiracy led to the seizure and death of them both.' Merovingian minting appears to have been a hugely complex enterprise. Variation was the rule; thousands of moneyers and hundreds of different locations are recorded upon the coins, revealing a decentralised system of urban political culture. Curiously, the name of the ruling Frankish sovereign was hardly ever employed, and this seems even more surprising when we consider the primacy attached to the imperial name and title on the late Roman coinage. The vast majority of Merovingian coinage looks, at face value, totally disconnected from royal authority. Only at the faraway mint of Marseilles do we find a sustained attempt to produce a coinage on the Roman mould - one which employs the royal name and systematically retains the use of the large gold Solidus. This series was produced throughout much of the seventh century, beginning under Chlothar II (c. 613) and ending under Dagobert II (c. 679). However, examples remain very rare, particularly in comparison to the relatively plentiful ‘National’ coinage, with the coinage of Childebertus Adoptivus being especially elusive. It is notable feature of the Frankish ‘Royal’ issues - and indeed Merovingian coinage as a whole - that a considerable proportion of the known specimens have been recovered from Britain. While Metcalf may have proven that the majority of these Merovingian imports circulated as money upon their arrival upon these shores, this need not be the case for the ‘Royal’ Solidi. Their absence from contemporary hoards such as Sutton Hoo and (more conspicuously) Crondall suggests a marginal function. A similar conclusion might be reached when we consider that the majority of the ‘Royal’ Solidi found in Britain show signs off having been converted into jewellery, either through piercing or the attachment of a loop (EMC 1982.9016; EMC 1990.0166; EMC 2005.0212; EMC 2011.0256; PAS KENT-4A1EA1; PAS SUR-09EA44; BMC 1865,0323.18 [presumably British found]; EMC 1, 406 [presumably British found]; Prou 1934). Clearly, these large gold coins did not circulate widely, and they were largely retained for use as personal adornment. In one case, a mounted Solidus of Dagobert I, a context of royal gift exchange has been proposed (Metcalf 2014, p. 55). Is it possible that all of these extremely rare coins (including the piece presented here) can be attributed to similar mechanisms of aristocratic exchange? One recalls the passage in Bede where the historian describes a dream experienced by the Kentish princess Eorcengota; a crowd of men had come to escort her away, and declared their intention to ‘take back with them the golden coin’. Such a metaphor suggests that these objects could be imbued with great personal meaning and significance.

The first known example of this type/mint combination was discovered in 2002 as part of the Abergavenny Area hoard. Following excavation the hoard was the subject of an inquest and was subsequently acquired, in its entirety, by the National Museum of Wales. Edward Besly published the hoard in the BNJ 2016, commenting that ‘In the case of Taunton, the Abergavenny hoard has added significantly to the total number of recorded specimens of Edward’s coinage, increasing this from 19 to 24 and providing the first record of the mint’s activity during the Bust Facing issue.’ The current coin appears to be only the second known example, and the only one available to commerce.

Aspects of the obverse legend, and the way the diadem interacts with the legend, suggests all three coins are struck from the same obverse die, albeit after several stages of re-cutting. Prou proposed a mint reading reading of enegavgiia on the specimen available to him, while Grierson read the obverse legend on the Fitzwilliam coin as oenegavgiia, in his view meaningless.
