Anglo-Saxon, Kent, Eadbald (616-640), Thrymsa or Shilling, 1.28g., Crondall phase, c.620-635 (67% AV), London, AVDVARLD REG[ES], first R inverted, diademed bust right, cross before, rev. cross on pellet within beaded inner circle, blundered legend around (cf. Sutherland VI.1, Corpus nos. 77-78 and plate IV, 22, 23; BMC and Dr Andrew Wayne (Spink auction 203, 24 June 2010, 1) same dies; Metcalf 50; N.29; S.758), well struck and centred, slightly irregular flan, a little weakness on reverse, lustre, most pleasing, the first gold coin issued in the name of an English king, extremely fine, extremely rare, known for seven examples PROVENANCEBonhams, 16 October 2007, 325This type was long known to be amongst the earliest of Anglo-Saxon gold coins with a single example present in the important Crondall hoard found in Hampshire in 1828 and dating from c.670. The conclusive attribution of these coins to king Eadbald of Kent, reigned 616-640, though was only made in 1998. This followed the emergence of new finds which enabled the obverse inscription to be confirmed as avdvarld reges, and translated as 'of King Audvarld'. The name 'auduarldus' appears in Bede's Historia Ecclesiastica completed in 731 in which he wrote about king Eadbald of Kent. Given this and the presence of one of these coins in the Crondall hoard, the attribution to Eadbald is now accepted.Whilst the Kentish Shilling or Thrymsa seems to have sought to match the Merovingian Tremissis, the design of this coin is peculiarly Anglo-Saxon using neither motifs found on Merovingian coins nor seeking to copy Roman types. In common with some other coins (e.g. the so called 'Witmen' and 'Londiniv/Londeniv' types), this coin has an inscription on the reverse. This can be clearly read on a example in the Ashmolean Museum as containing the word londenv indicating London as the mint or die source for these coins all of which share the same obverse die. The real significance of these coins is in the obverse inscription naming the historical figure of king Eadbald. This is exceptional for a coin of this period and is only certainly found again at the end of the seventh century with the Sceattas of Aldfrith of Northumbria (685-705). As such the Eadbald Thrymsa is the earliest coin issued in the name of an English king.Eadbald succeeded Aethelberht as king of Kent in 616. Aethelberht is principally remembered for having accepted St. Augustine into his kingdom and his subsequent conversion to Roman Christianity. According to Bede, after his accession Eadbald fell foul of the young Church, rejecting Christianity, ejecting its Bishops and incurring the wrath of the Church committing 'such fornication as the Apostle Paul mentioned as being unheard of even among the heathen, in that he took his father's (second) wife as his own.' Whatever Eadbald did, this situation did not last for he repented and was duly baptized, rejecting his wife and thereafter favouring the Church within his kingdom. These events reflect the conflict and confusion amongst the Anglo-Saxon elite at this time as Christianity sought to assert itself over the Pagan religion. This struggle is best known from the mix of Pagan and Christian artefacts in the Sutton Hoo ship burial, which is contemporaneous to Eadbald and this coin. As to the date of these named Thrymsas or Shillings of Eadbald, the presence of Christian iconography dates them to after his conversion and a date to between 620 and 635 is thought appropriate.CorpusSix coins other than this example are recorded with five of the six in institutional collections. Only one example other than this specimen is therefore in private hands.1. Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, 1.26g, AV 69%, Crondall Hoard, 1828. Dies A/a2.

The Easter Rising announcement by coded message Original telegram, in code, sent to America on 22 April 1916, two days before the Rising in Dublin took place, apparently announcing the successful plan for the rebellion. Volunteer companies around Ireland had been informed on the 21st that they would be parading on Easter Sunday, the 23rd, but only a few people knew that this meant the uprising was about to begin. In the event, disagreement among the leaders caused a delay, and an effort was made to call off the insurrection altogether, so that it was not until the morning of Easter Monday, 24 April, that the Volunteers and Citizens' Army took possession of several key buildings in Dublin. The telegram was sent via the international telegraph office at Valencia Island, County Kerry, and bears 17 British postage stamps, all cancelled with a hand-stamp timed at 3:45pm on 22 April. It is addressed to Mrs T. McGowan in Kosiusko Street, Brooklyn, New York, and reads ' Tom operated on today successfully'. The signature appears to have been transmitted as 'O[']Sullivan' ('Margaret' deleted). The message is written on separate piece attached to the official telegram form by the postage stamps. On the reverse of this piece is written 'T. Ring'. Accompanying the telegram is a note in an unidentified hand to Major Hall on Home Office paper, dated 20.11.16: '"Gaelic American" of 29.4.16 & original Cable form in the case of Timothy Ring herewith as per your request of 16.11.16 and 113034/M.I.5G3 of 22.8.16. with Mr Waller's compliments.' It may not be coincidental that Roger Casement was said to have been attended at his execution by two Irish Catholic priests, 'Dean [sic] Timothy Ring and Father James Carey' (Wikipedia, and A History of St Mary & St Michael's Parish, by Jean Maynard and others, London 2007, p. 213) . Canon Timothy Ring (1858-1941), born in County Kerry, was a popular and influential Catholic priest, Rector of an East London church and, not surprisingly, a firm advocate of Irish Home Rule. His possible involvement in the events of April 1916 is unclear. Together with the copy of The Gaelic American of 29 April 1916 announcing the Rising and describing how it was only through receipt of a coded telegram that the truth had been known, all messages and despatches from England having been censored. With related material in a folder ('of special interest') annotated by Colonel Frank Hall (the list including other material that Hall apparently deposited in the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland in 1962). Lieutenant-Colonel Frank Hall (1876-1964) was from an old Irish landowning family. He had joined the army in 1895, and after only a short career retired for the first time in 1911. He soon became involved in the paramilitary politics of Northern Ireland and became Military Secretary of the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF). He was member of the committee responsible for organising the landing and distribution of arms for the UVF, although perhaps not aware that they had come from Germany. When arms were run into Larne and Bangor, Hall's contribution to the exercise was in an intelligence role, aiming to confuse the constabulary and army around Belfast and disrupting telephone communications. In 1913 he imported Maxim guns from London, and in 1914 he was offered a job there, joining MI5, becoming the first 'Q' of Military Intelligence. (For Hall's involvement with Roger Casement see the following lot.) Three further envelopes of Hall's papers: ('A') Hall's typewritten account of the Gun Running, the 'Ulster Coup' of 24 April 1914, as recollected in 1934, with typescript note 'This throws rather a lurid light on JAMES CRAIG. It should be treated as CONFIDENTIAL'; letter of 25 September 1914 from FH suggesting questions to be put to the Ulster Unionist Council at their meeting; copy letter from a Belgian diplomat about the offer by Colonel [Maurice] Moore to sell German arms to Belgium, 3 February 1914; notes on armaments from Germany, signed W.M.; copy telegram to [?Joseph] Devlin in Dublin from Moore offering 'implements' and cartridges, 4 January 1915, and of a censored telegram from [Alice] Green expressing dissatisfaction with the South and that the Volunteers in the North should be armed. ('B') Papers retained by Hall from 1914-15: Two copies annotated by FH of a report headed 'SECRET' relating to a movement afoot to provide arms (13 January 1915) with reference to 'notorious pro-Germans, associates and confederates of CASEMENT'; list of those conspiring to provide arms for the Nationalist Volunteers, including associates of Casement, 12 January 1915; copies of (intercepted) telegrams and copy letters between Kettle and Moore; long letter to Hall, Dublin, 10 August 1914, describing a meeting with Colonel Moore and Captain [FitzRoy] Hamphill; list of volunteers who attended Raheen Manor training depot; copy letters annotated by FH; flimsy précis of correspondence about the purchase of arms (Moore / Kettle/ Casement), 4 pages folio; copy letter to Moore from Irish Volunteers Inspector General's Office, Dublin, 8 November 1915, 3 pages folio; copies of telegrams and letters, 4 pages folio, December 1914 - January 1915; reports from the Irish Government on seditious publications, arms trafficking etc., 6 pages and covering notes, 14 pages folio in all, with FH's note attached 'DESTROY when perused'; W[ar] O[ffice] file 'Genl No 5 / 479' 24/12/1914, concerning the 'wait and see' attitude of the British government, heavily annotated in red, probably by FH. With Extracts of reports from G.O.C. Troops, Ireland to the Secretary of the War Office, 9/12/1918. Later material: File of papers about the Ulster Covenant Jubilee, 1962, including correspondence between FH and Lord Brookeborough [Basil Brooke, Prime Minister of Northern Ireland], and with the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland [PRONI] with reference to FH's gun-running narrative (presumably the 1934 typescript included above) which he does not wish to be made public. Three envelopes with British Stamps overprinted by the Provisional Government of Ireland in 1922 and a photograph of Ballyedmond Castle, the property of Lady Ballyedmond.
An original sketch-map in Roger Casement's hand, showing the location of items he and his companions had hidden after landing from the German U-boat U-19 on Banna Strand, County Kerry on Good Friday, 1916. Two facing pages 8vo, on blind-stamped paper of the Metropolitan Police Office (Scotland Yard), with Casement's directions to the cache ('Under some fern bracken & bramble in the moat...'). The only things mentioned are '1 pair Binoculars' and '1 Lamp; the words '£50 in gold & silver' may be in a different hand, probably that of one of his interrogators, Major (later Colonel) Frank Hall. With contemporary envelope in Hall's hand; 'Plan of RATH drawn by Roger Casement at Scotland Yard when first interrogated on Easter Sunday 1916. Present B[asil] T[homson]/Herschell/Self. FH'. Accompanying Casement's map is a later note written in ink by Frank Hall on a small slip, which gives details of the distribution of the cache after it had been retrieved. It is known that three Mauser pistols had been discovered when Casement was arrested in Ireland, and F E Smithin his account of the trial of Casement has it that 'Bailey buried there some wepons, some maps of Ireland of foreign origin and three coast, one of which contained Casement's diary', but this documents gives a fuller pictuire. 'His binoculars were given to Basil Thomas/Gold sleeve links to DI Cheesman/'Flag of Irish republic' to R I C mess Phoenix Park/Cash to Sgt. & Constable R I C/3 mauser pistols to me. I gave one to [Major Ivor] Price who used it at Connie Marciewitz [sic] at the Castle & missed her' and a copy of the Easter Rising surrender document given to Frank Hall by E W Pearson/see illustration
Picton, Thomas Sir (1758-1815). Two a/l's both to a Mr Black (unidentified) in Trinidad, The first inscribed London 18th September 1800, includes "I have been put to inconvenience by the failure of the Remittance from Admiral Cochrane £1,000 respecting which I have not received any explanation" and "brough me a letter from Brigadier General Balfour. He neither likes the inhabitants on the island [Jamaica] as well as Trinidad. He says that the soil in general appears of very inferior quality ...".The second, dated 1st August 1803, includes "We are now under sail and Captain is nearly through the passage with a large portion of the company" and "The Rascal has been honoring the Tortolans [the largest of the British Virgin Islands] in his usual way. He is appointed Govenor in Chief of Trinidad and General Nyals? is using his circumstances until he has finished my prosecution, and then I am sent from close prisoner on board the Vinos - What an unpleasant Rascal!!!".Sir Thomas Picton was a Welsh British Army Officer. He was killed fighting at the Battle of Waterloo and was the most senior officer to die there.In 1797 he was made govenor of Trinidad and was later charged with excessive cruelty to slaves, including that of "picketing" (forcing a subject to be trussed up to stand on one toe for long periods), a charge for which he was eventually acquitted.Contained in a red morocco Autograph album, mounted with numerous a/l's and autographs including:- Mrs Emily Wilberforce, The Bishop of Chichester, Lady de Rothschild, an a/l from Ellen Terry, dated 24th August '98 to Sir John Blundell Maple "Do send a few of your people during the next few days to the Grand Theatre Fulham, I say this to you because I know you are always "on the look out" to do "little kindnesses".

September 1960 provenance:(i) Acquired 15 February 1969Lieutenant Colonel H Allcard collection(ii) Acquired 22 September 1960Lord Stewartby notes in 'The Exeter Mint and its Moneyers' (R P V Brettell sale catalogue, Glens 28/10/70) that; 'An important feature of West Country coinage, particularly at this period, is the occurrence of certain moneyers' names at more that one mint in circumstances which suggest that the moneyer could well have been the same individual.'. He continues; 'Hunewine is perhaps the most interesting of all names to occur on coins of Exeter. His types of this mint are few - Crux and Cb of Ethelred, Quatrefoil of Cnut and one or two Edward the Confessor types of c. 1050. However, the name Hunewine appears on every main type from Second Hand of Ethelred to Pointed Helmet of Cnut, at a total of six mints.'. It will be noticed that, with the exception of Hild. Cb, which is, anyway, only a mule type within the Crux issue, Hunewine's name does not appear in two consecutive types at the same two mints. This means that all the listed varieties could be explained as the products of a single moneyer on a protracted itinerary - starting at Totnes, passing via Exeter to Ilchester (or vice versa) in Crux, then on for a longish period of activity at Watchet, before moving finally to Lydford, after brief stops at Axbridge and Exeter, early in Cnut's reign. The two Cb coins appear to be from the same Intermediate Small Cross obverse die, and this link between the Exeter and Ilchester mints would assist the probability of a single moneyer being involved at the various mints. Furthermore, Mr Lyon has observed that Hunewine's Quatrefoil coin of Lydford appears to be from the same obverse die as a coin (H. 3589) of the moneyer Aelfsig at Ilchester.'.Subject to 20% VAT on Buyer’s Premium.
