This week’s fresh listings:
This page is to be updated every
Tuesday and will contain all the latest Coin,
Medal & Token listings for that particular week.
Additions to www.HistoryInCoins.com
for week commencing Tuesday 26th September 2023
** Useful
Information **
I have NOT increased old
stock prices on this site in line with either cost of living or coin inflation
for over a decade.
I do NOT put pull any old
stock coins (once on this site, it stays on this site until sold).
I've just had a quick look and
noticed many of the old stock coins on HistoryInCoins.com are now priced below
not just market prices, but below dealer buying-in prices.
This Week’s Listings:
Please
note
These
listings will remain on this page for TWO weeks whilst I go to the continent on
a buying trip.
Next
fresh additions will be Tuesday 10th October:
(VF
1646 Newark Halfcrown, Harthacnut penny in the name
of Harthacnut, etc)
WMH-7863:
Henry 1st
Hammered Silver Norman Penny. B.M.C. I, the Autumn
of 1100 only: +GDPINE ON PIILI – Godwine of Wallingford.
Spink 1263.
Only one other example recorded on the EMC and SCBI database. Found Prestonfield
(Hampshire) 2005, sold DNW September 2005 into a
private collection until now. Sold with old tickets.
The very first issue under Henry 1st and very much predating the mint's
need to officially test cut coins (this practise commenced 1105). An exceptionally rare coin. £1,375
WMH-7864:
Henry 1st
Hammered Silver Norman Penny. B.M.C.
VII, 1111 only: +EDPINE ON CATN – Edwine of Canterbury.
Spink 1268.
Only one other example (x2 entries but actually the same coin, and
a particularly grim example at that!) recorded on the EMC and SCBI database. Type 7 coins were actually struck after
type 9 coins but were still very much within the period where the mint was
required to officially test cut all coins (this practise commenced 1105). A very rare coin. £545
WMH-7865:
Henry 1st
Hammered Silver Norman Penny. B.M.C.
XIV, 1123 only: +ESGAR ON GLOCESE – Esgar of Gloucester.
Spink 1275.
No examples recorded on the EMC and SCBI database, although
the accompanying literature states two other coins known: one in the Gloucester
Museum and the other a cut half out of the 1987 Beauvais
Coin Hoard - the former will never be in public hands; the latter's whereabouts
are unknown. Sold with old tickets - the
detailed ticket looks to be 1980's with the Baldwin ticket (with Baldwin coin envelope) more recent. It is interesting to note that Baldwin's rate this coin as RRR. An exceptionally rare coin. £995
WMH-7866:
Edward IV
Hammered Silver Medieval Provincial Mint Groat. First reign, light coinage
of 1464-70. VIL
LAB RIS TOW reading - Bristol mint, Spink
2004. Initial mark Crown (very clear both sides),
an equally clear "B" on the breast, and quatrefoils by the neck. A very nice example. £345
WMH-7867:
Edward IV
Hammered Silver Medieval Provincial Mint Groat. First reign, light coinage
of 1464-70. CIVI
TAS COV TRE reading - the very rare Coventry mint, Spink 2008.
Initial mark Sun (not a mule of rose/sun as described
on the old ticket), C on breast, and quatrefoils by the neck. This mint was only operational for x72 days right at the start of the Light Coinage. After those few short days, the mint
closed. A rare coin. £435
WI-7868:
Henry VII Irish Hammered
Silver Early Tudfor Groat. Late portrait issue coinage
of 1496-1505. "CIVI
TAS DVBL InIE" reading - Dublin mint, Spink 6451.
Initial mark Lis, broad
portrait, very much double-punched, which was a definite characteristic of this
particular group due to issues with the shallow nature of the dies. £435
