Welcome to E-Auction 16! Our largest E-Auction to date, this sale includes a broad selection of ancient Greek and roman, British hammered and milled, tokens, and much more.

In the ancient section we have a scarce electrum hemihekte (lot 1), an Athenian owl with an uncommonly choice reverse (lot 13), and some choice small denomination Greek silver. The roman section is highlighted by a Julius Caesar denarius (lot 23), and includes both affordable examples of rare pieces and choice examples of less common coins.A few Byzantine folles precede the Celtic Britain, which then leads into a strong section of Anglo-Saxon including a Burgred penny (lot 59), and an Anglo-Viking penny of Cnut (lot 60). There are many attractive British hammered and milled coins, including a Charles I crown (lot 89) and a couple choice George III halfcrowns (lots 96 and 98).The highlight of this sale is the expansive token section, featuring 63 token lots in uncommon condition. One of the most striking pieces (Middlesex 144, lot 125) is featured on the cover of this catalog.The sale concludes with a few US Commemorative half dollars, some intriguing 17th century jetons, a very unusual (and large) grey metal cast (lot 184), a couple full and half-sovereign scales (lots 185 and 186), and a pair of high-quality handmade coin cabinets (lots 187 and 188).We hope you find some things of interest.

Mackennal (1863-1931) was an Australian sculptor successful in both Australia and Great Britain. Some of his work was purchased for the National Gallery of British Art. He became closely associated with the reign of George V designing his Coronation Medal as well as the obverse design of the King’s coinage beginning with his reign in 1911. Mackennal’s design was also adopted for the postage stamps issued during George V’s reign.
