Dix Noonan Webb

Lot 45

Archbishops of York, Abp Eanbald II (796-835) under Eanred (810-41), Sceatta or Penny, late 820s, · ea · nba · ld around small cross pattée, reading outwards, rev. +eanred r around small cross pattée, 0.91g/12h (SCBI Abramson –; Abramson –; Parsons –; Pirie –; N –; S –). Good very fine, struck on a broad flan; unlisted in the standard references and seemingly UNIQUE £600-£800 --- Provenance: Found near Driffield, E. Yorkshire (EMC 2021.0352). This coin represents the first known example of a Sceatta or Penny struck jointly under the authority of King Eanred and Archbishop Eanbald II. There was strong tradition of joint regal and archiepiscopal coins minted in the Kingdom of Northumberland, beginning under King Eadberht (737-58) and his brother Ecgberht, the Archbishop of York. The production of these joint issues continued regularly up until the pontificate of Eanbald II, at which point they were abandoned. This remarkable coin reveals that the minting of joint regal and archiepiscopal coins was revived, for a brief time, towards the end of Eanbald’s tenure as archbishop. The coinage of king Eanred (810-40) has been reviewed most recently by Stewart Lyon in the introduction to SCBI 68. Lyon divided Eanred’s coinage into two phases, distinguished from one another largely on the grounds of fabric. This coin is evidently struck from relatively good silver and thus consistent with the first phase of Eanred’s coinage. The style of the letter forms on the reverse conform closely to those seen on Eanred’s Phase I pennies signed by the moneyer Cuthheard (SCBI 68, 66). This moneyer appears to have had a preference for tall slender letters, particularly noticeable on the letter r, where the tail is almost parallel to the left limb. Another feature of Cuthheard’s work is the use of a cross as the principle obverse type, appearing directly below, and aligned, with the initial cross of the legend. The obverse of this coin carries the name Eanbald in the legend, with the letters inverted and reading outwards. Two men with the name Eanbald held the position of Archbishop successively during the late eighth and early ninth centuries, with Eanbald II replacing his namesake in 796. His pontificate appears to have lasted into the 830s. From a chronological perspective the latter Eanbald makes a better candidate to be the authority named alongside Eanred. Confirmation of this is provided by a die link between this coin and three regular archiepiscopal pennies, all signed by the moneyer Æthelweard (EMC 1997.0430, CNG eAuction 492, lot 1019, CNG 111, lot 1057). Æthelweard signed dies under both Eanbald II and his successor Wigmund. He was the only man whose employment continued following the start of Wigmund’s pontificate and Lyon intelligibly suggests that Æthelweard was the latest of Eanbald II’s moneyers. On this basis, a date for the minting of this unique joint issue Penny in the late 820s seems plausible. Given the dating indicated by the numismatic evidence it is tempting to associate this unique and important coin with the events surrounding the treaty at Dore. In 829 Ecgberht, king of Wessex, succeeded in finally conquering the Kingdom of Mercia. This extended the border of Ecgberht’s dominion to Northumbira, which provided the next logical target for further conquest. Acknowledging the threat posed Eanred submitted to Ecgberht and recognised him as overlord, no doubt with the intention of preventing war. In the end the treaty at Dore was superfluous. The following year the defeated Mercian king, Wiglaf, rose up and ‘obtained the Mercian Kingdom again’, driving Ecgberht back to the south of England. This joint regal and archiepiscopal penny evidently belongs to a special and short-lived issue minted around the time of these events. Perhaps it reflects an attempt to demonstrate political unity between crown and church in the face of Ecgberht’s impending invasion. Alternatively, it could represent a celebratory issue, minted following the removal of Wessex forces from the Northumbrian border. In either case it hints at a period of close, but short lived, co-operation between king and archbishop

INCLUDING THE SIGNATURES OF ALL SEVEN OF THE ARSENAL PLAYERS THAT REPRESENTED ENGLAND AGAINST ITALY THREE MONTHS LATER ON THE 14TH OF NOVEMBER 1934 IN THE MATCH NAMED ‘THE BATTLE OF HIGHBURY’. (Frank Moss, George Male, Eddie Hapgood, Wilf Copping, Ray Bowden, Cliff Bastin and Ted Drake) The 1934–35 season was Arsenal's 16th consecutive season in the top division of English football. Herbert Chapman's Arsenal had already claimed their first national trophy, the FA Cup in 1930 and League Championships followed in 1930-31 and 1932-33. Suddenly, in the middle of the 1933-34 season, Chapman died of pneumonia. His work was left to Joe Shaw and George Allison, who saw out a hat-trick with the 1933-34 and 1934-35 titles, and then won the 1936 FA Cup and 1937-38 title. After the death of Herbert Chapman in January 1934, Joe Shaw had been designated as caretaker, but in the summer, George Allison became full-time manager. In his debut season, he guided Arsenal to their third consecutive league title, with Arsenal finishing four points ahead of Sunderland. The Charity Shield was won at Highbury with a 4-0 victory over Manchester City, but the FA Cup run was ended by Sheffield Wednesday in the quarter-finals. During the season Arsenal had their highest ever Highbury attendance, with 73,295 witnessing a goalless draw against title rivals Sunderland. Ted Drake was top scorer with a club-record 42 goals from 41 league matches, thus topping the league scoring charts. In all competitions he made five more starts and scored two more goals. This season, Arsenal won 8-0 twice, against Leicester City and Middlesbrough, 7-0 against Wolves, 8-1 against Liverpool and 6-0 at rivals Tottenham, who coincidentally were relegated to the second division having finished the season bottom of Division One. The Battle of Highbury, England v Italy 14th of November 1934. The foggy afternoon of the 14th of November 1934 saw Arsenal provide seven members of the England team that played against the reigning World Champions Italy, a record contribution that still stands today. Fittingly, the match took place at Highbury stadium and ended in a 3-2 victory for England after a bruising and sometimes brutal match. Frank Moss, George Male, Eddie Hapgood, Wilf Copping, Ray Bowden, Cliff Bastin and Ted Drake were the Arsenal players involved. Eddie Hapgood captained England for the first time, while George Male and Ted Drake made their international debuts.
