Fatimid, al-Mu'izz (AH 341-365 / 953-975 AD), gold Dinar, AH 361 / 971/2 AD, Makkah, 4.19g (N. unlisted, see N. 385 for year AH 363). About Extremely Fine, minor edge scuff , otherwise sharply struck. One of the rarest coins of Islamic world. One previous example known on the market of the same type, dating from AH 363, sold in Morton & Eden, Auction 95/96, 24 October 2018, lot 124 hammered for £160,000. More later-date Dinars struck in Makkah (AH 364 and 365 respectively) are listed by Nicol, although not pictured. This earlier date Dinar is not listed by Nicol.Coins struck in the Holy City of Makkah are greatly prized by the collectors of Islamic series. Coins struck by Fatimids in Makkah are extremely rare and there are only a handful of examples known to ever come to the market and become available to collectors, especially of this type. The iconic so-called bullseye type gold Dinars of Fatimids are often admired for their artistic prowess and are widely regarded as the signifi ers of economic prosperity of the Fatimid Caliphate and its territorial expansion in the years when this coin was struck.As the power of the Abbasid Caliphs in Makkah waned under al-Muqtadir and his successors, the power was increasingly seized by the local sharifs from the early 10th century AD onwards. The main threat to Makkah during this period came from the Qarmatids, who att acked the Holy City in 930 AD and took the holy Black Stone from the Kaaba. Kafur, Ikhshidid ruler and an Abbasid vassal, persuaded the Qarmatids to return the Black Stone to Makkah in return for an annual tribute. Kafur was one of the most powerful men in Hejaz region at the time. After his death in 968 AD, a power void occurred and Ikhshidid succession was disputed. The Fatimids used this instability to their advantage and started establishing a strong presence in the region and especially in Holy City of Makkah, where the sharifs accepted Fatimid authority. The political turmoil of Ikhshidids gave Fatimid Caliph al-Mu’izz a chance to advance rapidly into Egypt, continuing into Palestine and Syria, occupying Damascus in 970 AD. In 974 AD, al-Mu’izz was offi cially recognized in the khutbah in both Makkah and Madina, even though his over-arching authority was acknowledged earlier. It is safe to infer that there are only a few coins which testify to that, which are in the name of al-Mu’izz and minted in Makkah before 974 AD - this is one of them. In literature, there is only one other one listed in Nicol which is not a full Dinar. An extremely rare and special find for a collector of the Fatimid series, which has an important place in history.

* Charlotte Augusta (Princess of Wales, 1796-1817). Portrait of a young boy, pencil and chalk on grey wove paper, head and shoulders portrait half-profile to the right, of a smiling curly-haired boy, 29.5 x 22.5 cm (11 1/2 x 8 3/4 ins), modern gilt moulded frame (33 x 26 cm), backboard with label written in ink in a contemporary hand: 'Drawing by the Princess Charlotte Given by her to her Preceptor the Bishop of Salisbury'QTY: (1)NOTE:A rare drawing by Princess Charlotte - given that she died in childbirth at the age of only 21 - which was gifted by her to her teacher and mentor, John Fisher. The Princess was the only child of George, Prince of Wales (eldest son of King George III, later to become King George IV) and Caroline of Brunswick; had she outlived her father and her grandfather, she would have become Queen.John Fisher (1748-1825) was a Church of England clergyman who was appointed Bishop of Exeter in 1803, before becoming Bishop of Salisbury in 1807. In 1780 he was appointed Preceptor to Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, and in 1781 became chaplain to King George III and Deputy Clerk of the Closet, in 1786 taking up the post of Canon of St George's Chapel, Windsor. It was in 1805 that he was appointed Preceptor to Princess Charlotte. By all accounts Charlotte was a mischievous pupil, often mimicking the Bishop behind his back. When referring to himself he pronounced the word bishop 'bishup', emphasising the last syllable, so the nine-year-old Charlotte soon nicknamed him 'the Great UP'.Also notable is Fisher's friendship with John Constable; he presided at Constable's wedding and commissioned his Salisbury Cathedral from the Bishop's Grounds (executed in 1823). Fisher became a close and trusted friend of Constable, as well as one of his best patrons; he was often called 'King's Fisher' in reference to his connection to the Royal Family, an association which was a valuable asset to the painter.
