Sale No. 313 Downies Australian Coin Auctions Page 3
Proof: Proof coins are the most beautiful coins imaginable. They are struck using specially hardened dies, and highly polished blanks. The result is a coin of great clarity and depth of detail. Most modern proofs (1966 onwards) contrast a brilliant mirror background against delicately frosted detail.
Proofl ike: Often a non-offi cial mint strike, or medallic in nature.
Brilliant Uncirculated (B/Unc) or choice Unc: Uncirculated, but with higher than normal sheen.
Uncirculated (Unc): An uncirculated or unused item. Full detail, no wear, brilliance and lustre are hallmarks of an uncirculated coin, whereas no bends, folds or staining are qualities of an uncirculated banknote.
Extremely Fine (EF): Coins show only traces of wear to the high points of the design and only light surface marks from circulating. Otherwise the design is clear and sharp and the coin will have much lustre. Notes are clean and crisp with only the slightest signs of creases and folds.
Very Fine (VF): Lustre has gone and there will be fl atness on the design of a coin. Other traces of wear may also be evident. Banknotes of this grade will show distinct signs of handling though the paper will still be reasonably crisp.
Fine (F): The effects of handling will be quite evident from the amount of fl atness to the design of a coin. Notes will
have clear signs of soiling and heavy creasing, possibly also some tearing.
Very Good (VG): Most details of a coin’s design will be all but gone, but the basic design and date are still visible. Notes of this grade are near the end of their useful life, and are of little value unless they are very scarce or rare.
choice: An exceptional example of the given grade.
good (g): Use of the prefi x good (e.g. gVF) indicates that the item is slightly better than the grade stated.
about (a): Use of this prefi x (e.g. aEF) indicates that the item is almost at the grading designated.

Purchaser1. The purchaser is to be the highest bidder. Any dispute
arising as to the highest bidder will be determined by the Auctioneer who may re-offer any disputed lot.
Auctioneer2. The Auctioneer shall regulate all bidding. Usual
procedure is for bids to be advanced by not less than 5% on the previous bid. The Auctioneer’s starting price shall be one bid over the second highest postal bid received. Postal bidders should bid early, as fi rst bids at the same level receive priority.
3. If so requested, buyers shall give their name and address and/or pay the whole or part of the purchase price at the sale. Failure to comply with these rules in respect of any lot entitles the Auctioneer to re-sell any lot, any resulting defi ciency being made good by the defaulter.
4. The Auctioneer reserves the right to (a) refuse any bid, (b) bid on behalf of clients. While every care and attention is taken in executing bids and written instructions, the Auctioneer regrets that he cannot accept responsibility for any errors.
5. The Auctioneer shall not be liable for any default of the Purchaser or Vendor.
Disputes6. In the event of any dispute, the Auctioneer shall have
sole discretion to resolve the dispute and may re-offer the disputed lot.
Reserve Price7. Bids below 60% of estimate will not be accepted.
Buyer’s Premium8. A 19.25% buyer’s premium (including GST) with a
minimum charge of $8 per lot will be added to the
hammer price of each lot and is payable by ALL
buyers.
Bidder Details9. All bidders must complete a bidder’s registration form
and supply suffi cient information and references as required by Downies Australian Coin Auctions – this will require the furnishing of suffi cient proof of identity. Clients unknown to Downies Australian Coin Auctions must register no later than 24 hours prior to the commencement of the sale.
Agents Bidding10. Agents bidding on behalf of disclosed and undisclosed
clients do so on their own responsibility both for payment and safe delivery of the lots.
Payment Terms11. Title of purchased lots shall not pass until the purchase
price and buyer’s expenses are paid in full with cleared funds in Australian Dollars. We accept Cash, EFTPOS, Electronic Funds Transfer, Bank or Personal Cheque and Credit Card (subject to surcharge). Overseas buyers not using credit card facilities will be required to add AUD $20 to payments to cover bank charges; this will appear on the buyer’s invoice.
Purchaser Responsibilities12. The buyer of each lot is to be responsible for it from the
time it is “knocked down”. Payment is to be made in full with cleared funds before delivery or collection. The lot(s) are to be paid for by Australian buyers within two days of receiving the invoice, and by overseas buyers within 7 days of receiving the invoice. A service charge of
2% per month will be added to all overdue accounts. Failure to pay in full within the specifi ed time also entitles the Auctioneer to re-sell the lots, with any resulting defi ciency being made good by the defaulter.
Delivery/Collection of Lots13. Lots can be picked up from our Auction Rooms, Lower
Ground Floor, Block Arcade from 1 pm Thursday,
21 February 2013. No lots will be delivered to buyers without payment in full. Lots purchased on behalf of postal bidders will be fowarded, fully insured, by the most practical method at the risk of the purchaser who shall bear all costs incurred. No lots will be delivered during the Auction. Note that payment and collection of goods must be completed by Friday, 8 March 2013.
General14. Each lot is sold as genuine and correctly described.
Unless described, all offi cial packaging and relevant numbered certifi cates are presented within the lot. The purchaser is at liberty to return the lot by giving written notice with seven days (or in the case of overseas buyers, within 14 days) of the sale, if he proves that the lot is not genuine or not correctly described. The onus on proving a lot to be not genuine lies with the purchaser. Proof of the inability of a recognised expert to express a defi nite opinion will not discharge this onus.
15. Watches, instruments and devices with working mechanisms are verifi ed to be accurately described. Whilst every care is taken to provide secure packaging for all items in transit, no responsibility may be assigned to the Auctioneer for lots which are described as being ‘in working order’ but are found to be not working at time of receipt. Such lots are sold “as is” and are not subject to return.
Terms and ConditionsIt is important that bidders make themselves aware of the following. Do not bid if you are
not prepared to comply fully with the terms and conditions for this auction.
Sale No. 313 Downies Australian Coin Auctions Page 5
16. No lot is to be rejected if subsequent to the sale it has been removed from its sealed holder and/or has been treated by any process, unless the Auctioneer’s permission to subject the lot to such treatment has fi rst been obtained in writing.
17. No lot is to be rejected if the purchaser or his agent has inspected the lot prior to the sale, irrespective of whether or not any item or items are incorrectly described.
18. Failure on the part of the bidder or purchaser to comply with the conditions stated previously, entitles the Auctioneer to cause the bidder or purchaser to forfeit any deposit held. Any uncleared lots may be re-sold by public or private sale and any resultant defi ciency shall be made good by the defaulter.
19. Bids from minors will not be accepted unless accompanied by a full cash deposit or suitable guarantee.

ViewingDownies Australian Coin Auctions will apply the following strict guidelines for intending auction viewers:
• Viewers will be admitted to the viewing room subject to positive proof of identity – this requires the furnishing of a Government issue photo ID (such as a driver licence, passport). If no photo ID is available, then two forms of ID, with at least one with a signature (credit cards), will be acceptable. These conditions will be strictly adhered to, regardless of any previous dealings the viewer has had with Downies or Downies Australian Coin Auctions.
• No hand luggage (such as bags) or hand-held apparel will be permitted in the viewing room under any circumstances. Staff are happy to hold such items in a secure room on your behalf.
Page 6 Downies Australian Coin Auctions Sale No. 313
• As a bidder at our Public Auction, you will be able to decide the level at which you would like to purchase an item. To assist bidders in the preparation of their bids, the Auctioneer has set an “estimated market price” on each lot. This is a conservative guide to the market value of the items described and you may bid above or below this estimate.
• Please note however, that bids below 60% of this estimate will not be processed.
• Our descriptions are complete and our grading is conservative. Our aim is to give you the best possible guide to the actual condition of the item you are seeking. We value our postal bidders and believe that our grading and pricing policies work to the mutual long term benefi t of both the customer and our Company.
• Your bid will be executed in the strictest confi dence by an offi cial representative of the Company. It will be regarded as the maximum bid that you are prepared to pay and we will always try to purchase on your behalf at a price lower than your maximum bid given.
• On items that you anticipate the price may far exceed the estimate, we can offer you some fl exibility in the execution of your bid. Obviously, you may submit a bid well above
the estimate and this will be treated as your maximum bid (excluding the buyer’s commission). Alternatively, you can place a conservative bid and, if the bidding far exceeds it, you can elect to increase that bid by a fi xed percentage. The higher bid will only be executed if necessary, and strictly according to your instructions. Please fi ll in the appropriate space on the bid sheet if this is required.
• If you are interested in a number of lots, but only wish to spend a limited amount of money, please mark your bids and then clearly indicate in the space provided, the maximum amount you wish to spend.
• In preparing your bids, it is important to note that a 19.25% buyer’s commission is added to the knock down price of each lot (includes GST).
• If you are interested in a particular item, and there are two or more identical lots; you can clearly indicate on your bid sheet that you wish to bid for “one only” (or more) of the nominated lots on offer. This must be made clear on the bid sheet.
• Remember, the benefi t is yours by buying at Public Auction: you can decide exactly what you want to pay for any item, and bid to that level.

Exhibition Medallions
500 International Exhibition Victoria 1873 prize medallion 48mm in bronze by Stokes & Martin Melbourne, edge impressed “The Hon Samuel H.Bindon, Commissioner” virtually Unc with mirror-like fi elds, much scarcer in bronze than the silver issue and very rare when awarded to an exhibition commissionerSamuel Henry Bindon (1812-1979) was a minister for justice, judge and pioneer of technical education. Born in Limerick Ireland to landed parents with a history of representation in the Irish parliament, he graduated from Trinity College Dublin with a Bachelor of Laws in 1838. Soon after he became a member of the Celtic Society, the Archaeological Society of Ireland and the Irish Federation, and in the 1840s he publicly adopted the Irish nationalist cause. The family property that he had expected to inherit was alienated from him in the Encumbered States Courts in the famine of 1846. Further political disappointments ensued in the early 1850s and he decided to immigrate to Australia, landing in Victoria in 1855. He practised law in the county courts and was elected to the Legislative Assembly for Castlemaine in 1864, serving as Minister of Justice in 1866 for two years, and resigned his seat in Parliament in October 1868. Bindon strove for the development of the agricultural and industrial wealth of the country, and amongst other achievements he succeeded in passing special grants for industrial exhibitions which led to the Melbourne Exhibition of 1866. He was also publicly active as a trustee of the Public Library, National Gallery of Victoria, and as chairman of the Industrial and Technological Museums Committee. In April 1869 the government of the day appointed Bindon as judge of the County Court for Gippsland and after temporarily losing his job in 1878 he was soon afterwards reappointed to cover all county court duties for the colony with only two other judges. Overwork undermined his health and he died in St Kilda 1st August 1879 aged 67. A Queensland rainforest tree, the Big-leaved Bollywood (Litsea Bindoniana) is named in his honour Est. $300

553 Western Australia; company settlement of Australind Rural Land Order, ‘Order of Choice’ certifi cate No.122 London 14th November 1840 named to William Storrs Fry of the Old Jewry London, a signifi cant document concerning colonial settlement in Western Australia; accompanied by a handwritten letter dated 15 September 1886 from ‘Alfred’ to ‘John Henry’ concerning the latter’s father’s land at Australind in which ‘Mr Clifton’ is mentioned, the document and letter both in excellent condition.
Australind was a proposed development of an English-style village on the Leschenault Inlet in Geographe Bay where it was anticipated horses could be bred for the British Indian Army. Plans for the proposed town were drawn up and 440 settlers arrived in 1841 with Marshall Clifton being appointed to take charge. Within two years the settlement had failed because of adverse conditions and little of the town planning had actually taken place. Most of the land was eventually taken back by the Crown and settlement plans were offi cially abandoned in 1875. A small number of buildings constructed in the 1840’s still remain today including Clifton’s residence, a church and the town’s fi rst hotel (built 1841: now Henton Cottage).
William Storrs Fry (1806-1844) married Juliana Sally Pelly in 1832, she the daughter of Sir John Henry Pelly, a Captain of the East India Company Service. John Henry Fry (born 1841) was the fi fth child (of seven) and second son of William and Juliana Fry. Est. $300

The two Nathaniels, father and son, were Burgesses of Glasgow, the elder Nathaniel being a merchant in Strang & Stevenson of Glasgow and the younger Nathaniel a Justice of the Peace.

Silesian by birth and an engraver by trade, he set up his business in Ballarat in August 1858. His fi rm was well known for the lithographic printing of Ballarat streets and other scenes by local artists, notably “The Ballarat Album”, as well as coloured prints of the local mining industry.
