Lined in green baize, accessories include clearing/loading rod, powder flask, balls, pincer mould, patches, pan brush & turn screw. Leslie Martin Additional Notes: This pair are an enigma, probably more due to the clients wishes than to George Turner's! Their build date has to be between 1810 & 1815 as: (1) 'French' cock only introduced c.1810. (2) Rounded lock plate rear only used c. 1815 on. But retro features are (1) high point chequering (out of style by 1805). (2) gold vent & lines (out of style by 1807). (3) silver fore-end (out of style, along with silver furniture, by 1800). Supporting the date: (1) 3 lines of breech decoration (although Fowler used this since 1800) (2) unlifted rainproof (& spoon shaped) gold lined pan. (3) c. 8 other pre-1800 dating 'duelling' factors. These have the feeling of 'jewellery'* as ordered by an English(?) client who specified safeties, gold vent & lines + silver fore-end, against the Irish trend at that time. Effectiveness (other than the contentious safety!!!!?) is not compromised; breech is Nock Patent, and locks detente. Lack of set trigger (in my opinion!) supports the effectiveness of no practical value with a heavy barrelled dueller. (Though interesting to note use of set trigger in perc 'duellers' late 1820s to c. 1840. But was this a recognition that these were now target pistols rather than duellers?) *But why blank escutcheon? W.L.M. 2/2/09 (2009). Bottom line/Conclusion confer date on 'New factors rather than old. Reason: the new can't pre-invent themselves, whereas the old guard could have dragged themselves on 5/10/maybe 15 years? [Was the change in Society following the Union an influencing factor - or did G.B. makers follow suit?]

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 ·.

UNITED KINGDOM. Victoria, 1837-1901. Gold half-sovereign, 1887. London. Imperfect J DISH L508. The issues the mint encountered with the Jubilee coins are well documented and were exacerbated by the pressure for the coins to be ready for the Queen's Golden Jubilee on 20 June 1887. Records show that 1,771,425 half-sovereigns were struck in 1887, but only 871,770, less than 50% of the total, were fit for circulation. To improve metal flow silver was included in the alloy, which makes all 1887 London Jubilee head half-sovereigns stand out for their lighter colour. Although this variety is the most common of the 1887 Jubilee head half sovereigns, it is highly sought after due to the fascinating story surrounding the series, recently told by David Iverson and Steve Hill In their publication 'The Jubilee Head Gold Half Sovereign 1887-1893' (Sovereign Rarities, 2019).Crowned and veiled Jubilee bust facing left; JEB on truncation, imperfect J; inscription: VICTORIA DEI GRATIA BRIT: REGINA F: D:. / High, crowned and embellished shield-of-arms; date in exergue; BRITANNIARUM REGINA FID: DEF:.In secure plastic holder, graded NGC MS 63, certification number 3004615-001.
