1673

S3393, P510var. C/O in CAROLVS for certain and possibly B/R in BRITANNIA with the caveat that the reverse die is badly clashed, with two clear ties showing between the shield and NIA. Unrecorded and the only example I am aware of. (2337)

aFine £65

1673

S3393, P510var. A/R in CAROLVS. Unrecorded & the overstrike clear. Rare and the only example I have seen. (2338)

VF £325

Add to basket
1673

S3393, P513. No reverse stop. The apparent stop after BRITANNIA is an incuse flaw. Worn but rare. ex Nicholson 016. (1727)

Fair £75

Add to basket
1675

S3393, P517. No obverse stops. Worn and only fair, but rare. (1660)

Fair £65

Add to basket
1691

S3449, P-. The edge reading of NVMMORVM[ }+FAMVLVS.1691++ not recorded by Peck and presumably rarer than usual for what is a scarce issue. Strictly only fair, but stable and the edge clear. Ex Dr B Nicholson collection lot 038 sold by Colin Cooke in 2004. Weight 10.86g. (1467)

Fair £140

Add to basket
1694

S3452, P602. Light even wear with all details clear. A nice example. (2009)

nVF £160

Add to basket
1694

S3452, P604. Unbarred A's in MARIA. Strictly fair with weakness at the bottom of the busts and at Britannia's head, but the variety clear. Extremely Rare. Weight 10.05g. (1662)

Fair £80

Add to basket
1696

1/2d. S3554, P641. A reasonable example of this issue. (1894)

Fine £40

Add to basket
1697

S3554, P650*. No stop after TERTIVS. Even wear with the feature clear as there is nowhere to put the stop. There is a trace of a stop after GVLIELMVS.(2008)

nFine £45

Add to basket
1698

S3554. Ist Issue. Date in exergue. Worn and only fair, but rare in any grade as they were only struck for the first three months of 1698. (1825)

Fair £20

Add to basket
1698

S3555, P674. Date in legend and a distinctive mistrike. The obverse reads GVLIELMELM ERTIVTIVS around a deformed head with 4 ties. The reverse reads BRBRITANIA16981698 with no head to Britannia. Low grade, but interesting. (2339)

Fair £50

Add to basket
1699

S3555, P675. Date in legend and no stop after date. General wear with some pitting and a green patina, but stable. Rare. (35)

Fair £15

S3556, P699. Reads GVLIELMS. Worn with the reverse better. Ex W J Noble, Glendining 28/11/1973 lot 49 (part). Very rare. (262)

Fair/aFine £75

Add to basket
1700

S3556, P702. I/V in TERTIVS. Worn with the reverse worse. This is the Peck plate coin. Attempts to trace its provenance have not been conclusive. Initially all bar three sources used by Peck were eliminated - West, Firth or P G Smith. However, the Circular for Feb.1979 lists an example of this type as ex-Peck and which more adequately fits the description of this coin than that given in the Nicholson sale for lot 140 which was described as ex-Peck and the timing of the Circular listing fits well with Nicholson's purchase of it in early 1981. It is therefore likely that this is in fact an ex-Peck piece as well as ex-BN 141. Very rare. (1728)

nFine/Fair £150

Add to basket
1700

1/2d. S3556, P-. L/E, 2nd L in GVLIELMVS. Pitted, but much higher grade than normally encountered. Only the second example I have seen. Looks much less pitted and the overmark is clear in the hand. Unrecorded in Peck. Rare. (2294)

VF £150

S3659, P769. No obverse stops.(1666)

Fine £100

Add to basket
1718

S3659, P774. Dump issue. Even wear to both sides from circulation, the obverse E's and rev. R are blundered but don't appear to be over anything. Weight 9.48g. (212)

gFine £25

Add to basket
1734/3/I

S3717. Worn, but the date detail is obvious. It also looks like B/D in BRIT. Odd. ex Nicholson (1724)

nFine £50

S3717, P849. Small date numerals. General wear. (1663)

S3719, P883. Toned with only a trace of wear. (1667)

EF £260

Add to basket
1771

S3774, P896. Toned with only a trace of wear to the high points. Flaw by the eye and weakness through the laurel leaves, both not fully struck. Pleasing even so. The second 7 appears to be over an underlying 7 or 1. (261)

EF £175

Add to basket
1771

1/2d. P898 (ball below spear blade. Minimal signs of friction to the highest points. (1892)

EF+ £275

Add to basket
1773

1/2d. P904. A really nice example which is essentially uncirculated with the barest hint of cabinet friction only to the highest point of both sides. Previously slabbed NGC MS63BN. (2143)

gEF £340

Add to basket
1774

S3774, P907. Some lustre to both sides, more to the reverse which is quite iridescent. Slight wear to Britannia's left breast only. Slabbed PCGS MS64 RB. (529)

gEF £325

1790

Pattern in Bronzed Copper, P953 [ER]. Light friction to the drapery and breast. Rare. (2137)

S3778, P1248. 5 incuse gunports.(823)

VF £20

Add to basket
1799

1/2d. S3778, P1248. 5 ports. Struck from dies having prooflike or semi-prooflike qualities with raised polishing lines to both sides, this has attributes of a currency die polished for striking proofs, though the raised flaw on Britannia's lap would result in the die's rejection. Well above average fields and some iridescence. (2341)

UNC £220

Add to basket
1799

1/2d. S3778, P1252. Raised line on hull. Minimal wear and scarce. (2342)

EF £80

Add to basket
1799

S3778, P1249. 6 raised gunports. Toned with only modest wear. Comes with an old ticket indicating it was purchased from a Dr Johnson - possibly Dr E A Johnstone whose collection was bt 1973 by Baldwin. (715)

aEF £35

Add to basket
1806

S3781, P1376(var). No berries. This coin has a ball below on the trident shaft below the forks. Peck asserts on p.375 that only some proofs have a ball but all current pieces or proofs struck from current dies are without, however there is always an exception to the rule and this is it. To date, a search for another example from this reverse die has not revealed any further examples, so is presumably ext. rare. Previously cleaned, it is now retoned. (1640)

EF+ £125

Proof in Bronzed Copper. P1363. Problem free, but a little dull. Previously slabbed PCGS PF64. (2131)
