19 Danelaw Vikings, c.875-925, ‘Hacksilver’ ingot, 8.06g, 52mm x 3-4mm, smoothed andtapering square rod, stamped on all sides at one end with lozenge grid pattern, very fine £120-150

PROVENANCE:Found near York, 2010, recorded with the Portable Antiquities Scheme, ref. YORYM727414.

The Viking invaders were not used to the monetary economies they found in the Englishterritories. As a result for some years after the conquests of the 860s and 870s they continuedto make transactions using bullion either as cast and marked bars or as cut up silverware andjewellery. This seems to have operated as currency alongside coins coming from SouthernEngland and the continent. The resulting economy is often referred to as the ‘dual economy’of the Danelaw. The most famous find of coins, hacksilver and other items from this period isthe Cuerdale hoard found in 1840 by the river Ribble in Lancashire. As well as severalthousand coins, this included a large number of pieces of hacksilver.

This piece of hacksilver would have been worth around 6 Pennies assuming an average weightof c.1.30g for a Penny. Finds of individual pieces of hacksilver are uncommon.

The mint signature CENTRA or CENTPA is noted for some other coins of Canterbury for thisissue however no moneyer by the name of Wulfmaer is recorded in either the SCBI, BMC orEMC for this mint and Cnut. Moneyers by the name of Wulfmaer are known for several othermints under Cnut. It is conceivable that this moneyer could have produced a small output atCanterbury whilst moving between mints. Notably a Wulfmaer is known for Romney andLondon so it is not impossible that the Canterbury Wulfmaer might be this person.Canterbury is a scarce mint for this issue recorded for 105 coins.

A Unique New Addition to the English Halfgroat Series

Page 19

POSVI/DEVM A/DIVTOR/E, double saltire stop after DEVM,CIVI/TAS/LONDON, unbarred Ns, no contraction marks (N.-; S.-; Potter -; cf. GreenhalghRichard II 3/Henry IV 1), full flan, surface corrosion, about fine/fine, indisputably with acrescent on the obverse, the only known example and a great rarity, previously unrecorded,extremely rare £1,500-2,000

PROVENANCE:Found, at Ford, Northumberland, February 2011 - recorded with UKDFD ref 31762.

Until this coin came to light the only coins of Richard II known with the crescent on breastfeature were the extremely rare type IV Groats. The existence of Halfgroats with a crescent onthe breast was for long suspected with a coin formerly in the Walters collection, sold in 1913and later acquired by the British Museum, cited as an example for many years. Thisattribution was firmly rejected by Marion Archibald in 1965 who showed the crescent on theking’s breast was imagined and actually the result of carelessly punched cusp ends on the die.The crescent on this new coin is absolutely clear and certainly not the result of sloppy diecutting, making it possible to confirm that ‘crescent on breast’ Halfgroats were indeed struck.

Lord Stewartby associates this reverse style with the unbarred N, known for a single die, withissues of Henry IV. He noted, though, that Halfgroat mules of Richard II and Henry IV allpair earlier reverses with later obverses. This new coin clearly pairs a Richard II. i.e. earlierobverse with what, on traditional interpretation, is a later i.e. Henry IV reverse - acombination most unlikely according to Lord Stewartby. He also noted that when theunbarred N reverse die occurs on Henry IV Halfgroats it is always worn and thatconsequently it may have been struck from a reused Richard II type IV reverse die. This newcoin, although with surface corrosion, does not seem to have been struck from a worn die andthis appears to support Lord Stewartby’s observation that this reverse die is indeed one ofRichard II later reused under Henry IV.

In conclusion the reverse of this coin is not a Henry IV type but is in fact the reverse for a‘crescent on breast’ Richard II type IV Halfgroat. This would be entirely consistent with theRichard II type IV Groat issue and proves that the issue of ‘crescent on breast’ Groats wasaccompanied by Halfgroats as well. This new coin firmly belongs to the coinage of Richard IIand provides for a new addition to the English Medieval coinage.

The presence of a negro slave at the coronation scene is highly significant. As Duke ofClarence, William had spoken in the House of Lords in favour of the system of slavery aspracticed in the West Indies. He was never a friend of the Abolitionists. Although the slavetrade had been outlawed by Britain in 1807, slavery still flourished. The negro kneeling beforethe throne on this medal is an eloquent, silent, plea to the new monarch to support theAbolitionist cause. The Emancipation Act was passed in 1833 and the new law took effectfrom 1 August the next year.

A SELECTION OF COINS FROMTHE 2007 BRIDGNORTH HOARD

The Bridgnorth (Shropshire) hoard, found in 2007, contains a large number of bronze coins struck in the mid-fourthcentury at mints in the Western Empire. It includes coins of the emperors Constans (337-50) and Constantius II (337-61) with the majority of the usurpers Magnentius (350-53) and Decentius (351-53). Many of the coins appear tohave been newly minted and some retain rarely found silvering. Offered here is a representative selection from the hoardby Emperor, type and mint. After the British Museum and Shropshire Museum acquired coins from the hoard for theircollections, the remainder was returned to the finder and landowner.

Value Added Tax (VAT)

Charging of (VAT) at AuctionThe information shown on this page sets out the way in which Spink intends toaccount for VAT.

i. Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme1. Where possible, we will offer Lots for sale under the Auctioneers’

Margin Scheme. Such Lots can be identified by the absence of anysymbol next to the Lot number in the catalogue and will not besubject to VAT on the Hammer Price.

2. Where Lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme toVAT–registered businesses, the VAT included within the Buyers’Premium is not recoverable as input tax. Upon request on sale day,we will issue invoices that show VAT separately on both the HammerPrice and the Buyer’s Premium. This will enable VAT-registeredbusinesses to recover the VAT charged as input tax, subject to thenormal rules for recovering input tax.

ii. Zero-Rated LotsLimited Categories of goods, such as books, are Zero-rated (o) for VAT inthe United Kingdom. Such Lots are offered under the Auctioneers’ MarginScheme. In these circumstances no VAT element will be included withinthe Buyer’s Premium.

iii. Daggered LotsLots which are Daggered (†) in the catalogue are subject to VAT at 20%on both the Hammer Price and the Buyer’s Premium.

iv. Starred and Omega LotsLots which are marked (x) in the catalogue are subject to VAT at 5% onthe Hammer Price and 20% on the Buyer’s Premium which is shown asinclusive of VAT. Lots which bear the Omega symbol (Ω) are subject toVAT at 20% on the Hammer Price and on the Buyer’s Premium. Such Lotsbear VAT because the Lot is liable for VAT at this rate on importation intothe EU.

v. Investment Gold LotsLots marked (g) in the catalogue are exempt from VAT on the HammerPrice and are subject to VAT at 20% on the Buyer’s Premium. A refund ofVAT charged on the Buyer’s Premium can also be made on receipt of proofof business as a collectibles dealer.

vi. Imported LotsLots which are marked (x) and Lots which bear the Omega symbol (Ω)have VAT charged on the Hammer Price and Buyers’ Premium becausethey have been imported into the United Kingdom from outside the EU.In these cases we have used a temporary importation procedure, which ineffect means that the point of importation is deferred until the Lot has beensold. At this point the Buyer is treated as the importer and is liable to paythe import VAT due. We will collect the VAT from you and pay it to HMCustoms and Excise on your behalf.

We now wish to play a modest role in preserving ourplanet, as well as the heritage of collectables, so future generations may enjoy both.

We insist that our printers source all paper used in the production of Spink catalogues from FSC registered suppliers (for further information onthe FSC standard please visit fsc.org) and use inks containing non hazardous ingredients. Spink recycle all ecological material used on our premisesand we would encourage you to recycle your catalogue once you have finished with it.
