BM044 Victoria, Gold Sovereign, 1863, variety with 827 on truncation of second larger young head left, date
below, rev crowned quartered shield of arms within wreath (Bentley 1017; Marsh 46A; MCE.524; S.3852F).
Toned, some light surface marks, almost very fine and extremely rare.
10,000
This intriguing variety first came to light in 1954 when an 827 numbered truncation with die number 22 reverse turned up in the
Hatton Hoard of gold found in Derbyshire. This initial coin ended up in the British Museum Collection.
This variety is termed the first variety of the 827 Sovereign coupled without a reverse die number. The first non-die number
variety will be offered for sale in part three next year. These are called the first variety as it is thought that this die numbered 827
Sovereign was produced and struck from an initial batch of re-melted scissel and scrap emanating from the Rothschild brittle
ingots delivered to the Mint circa November to December 1863 which were inventory numbered to include ingot number 827. For
further reading about the 827 Sovereigns see Spink Numismatic Circular, October 1977, page 421, article by G P Dyer.

Seemingly Unique Lead Reverse Striking of a Crown Design Proposed For Two Reigns
BM084 George IV / William IV, Trial striking in lead of a pattern reverse design for a Crown, unsigned but
thought to be by J B Merlen, undated but hand etched 1830 in two places, quartered shield of arms
within crowned ermine mantle and Order of the Garter, an escutcheon of the Arms of Hanover at
centre, toothed border surrounding, trial etchings of dating apparent in four positions, scratched out
ANNO in upper left, 1830 in upper right and lower right, ANNO in lower left, rev red wax adhered to
rear with remains of paper, where perhaps it was once stuck perhaps in an engravers design book,
3.68g (cf.L&S George IV 37-41, William IV 10; Bull George IV rev.4, William IV rev.2). Extremely fine, as
made and probably unique, extremely rare.
1,500
This intriguing trial piece was not recorded by Linecar and Stone, probably because it was not present in the Lingford Collection
of 1951, where a great number of lead trial pieces appeared that L&S picked up on when producing their book in the 1960s.
This coin design was most likely by J B Merlen who was responsible for most of the reverses on the coinage of George IV, and there
is a later signed version of this reverse with initials at the bottom under the St George on an undated pattern produced for William
IV (Linecar and Stone 8). This trial was obviously testing out the various positions to quote the date upon the reverse, however it
was obviously decided that the mantle robe extended too far towards the rim in the lower portion of this design, and the adopted
reverse then used for William IVs silver Crowns from 1831 had the design, we are all familiar with as demonstrated on the next
coin upon this list. This trial piece then has been stuck to something made with paper like a scrap book, perhaps even a portfolio of
Merlens work. This is all very intriguing as the design appears on pattern pieces of both the reigns George IV and William IV.

With a ticket in Michael Sharps handwriting stating the coin was a gift from L A Lawrence to Fred Baldwin.
L A Lawrence was a regular visitor to the Royal mint, and was a close confidant of Charles Barrett, Curator of the Royal Mint Museum.
Mr Lawrence was therefore gifted many VIP proof issue coins over the years, most significantly an example of the 1933 Penny.
The recent publication by Maurice Bull updating the English Silver Coinage has unfortunately caused some confusion over
designation of the extremely rare proofs of the Wreath Crown of 1928, 1932 and 1933 giving two proof versions for each date when
in fact in our experience there are only VIP proof issues for the dates of 1928-34 inclusive and 1936.

This Crown is heavier than the regular sterling silver proof and has much more of a contrast in colour, brilliance and frosting
between the raised design, lettering and fields. Based on the heavier weight, we suspect this special presentation piece is pure
silver but test need to be conducted. The coins is sold with the regular sterling proof silver version and the currency cupro-nickel
piece for comparison. There is a good provenance with this piece which we are able to reveal to the eventual buyer.

Bull gives a dual listing for the proofs of this date when in reality the proofs were all issued for VIPs and have a brilliant field with
came contrast frosted design and lettering. Therefore Bull 4358 is the true number for the Halfcrown. Incidentally the matt finish
