314 Two Pound Gold Proof 1887S. Second die type. Brilliant frosted mirror finish with traces of light surface marks. Overall, not as good as the finest known example we sold in Sale 70, but the next best of 4 examples known, and clearly a superior coin to the other 2 lesser grade coins, and with good eye appeal. Originally discovered in Greece, and sold by Mr Barrie Winsor in the late 1980’s. Extremely rare. aFDC $80000-85000

315 Kookaburra Penny 1919 Type 7. Lovely light old tone and mint bloom, an attractive example. An underrated type, and far rarer than the Type 3 or Type 6, with only a handfull of examples known, with this coin the Type coin for the rare 1920 date issue. Very rare. FDC $100000-110000

316 Threepence 1922/1 Overdate. A truly amazing coin, as this is a new find to the market. Originally discovered in an old time English collection, this is a stunning coin to say the least, in that it is the only known example with both the 7th and 8th pearls visible. In March 2009 we sold what was believed to be the finest known Overdate Threepence in private hands (Ex the C. Jaggard collection). That coin was knocked down for $108,345 in total. Whilst that coin possessed a Reverse nearly as good as this coin, the Obverse had a “flat” spot on the 7/8th pearls (as usual), and was graded aEF/gEF. This example has been checked and verified by a number of Australia’s leading experts, and when examined by Mr Barrie Winsor, he exclaimed that he thought it was “Better than the coin in the Museum of Victoria’s collection!” Possessing subtle old soft toning, and virtually blemish free, this amazing coin is clearly the finest known. Superb. aUNC $140000-150000

Page 51 International Auction Galleries Sale 72 Finest Known 1922/1 Threepence to be offered in IAG’s Next Sale! NTERNATIONAL Auction Galleries Inext auction - Sale No.72 - to be held on September the 5th 2010, has some special highlights, but it is a brand new find that has been stirring up significant interest! This new find was apparently discov- ered in an old English collection that was sold in 1980, which remained in the UK until an ardent local collector got wind of it. Being an extremely interested and avid collector of overdates and varieties, he decided to fly over to see the coin for him- self, and ended up purchasing it several years ago. Rumours have abounded for several years about a superior unrecorded Overdate Threepence, but had no sub- stance until this coin was brought to light. IAG originally sold what was believed to be the finest known 1922/1 Overdate in private hands (the Ex C Jaggard coin) in January 2002, where it had resurfaced after being unseen for many years. That coin was again sold by IAG in March 2009, this time realising the current record price of $108,345. Originally graded as aEF/gEF, this previously finest known coin is a significant step down in grade from this new find, which has been graded as aUNC. Of particular note in this new coin is that it is the only known example to have both the 7th and 8th pearls in the band visible. Apparently, not even the example in the Museum of Victoria’s collection has this, so this may well be the single finest known 1922/1 Overdate in existence. “This is the most exciting coin I have seen in a while” Mr Paul Hannaford, IAG’s auction co-ordinator stated. “It is great when we offer something that is extremely rare for sale, but when something new comes along that completely changes the whole way we view a certain coin, then that is priceless.”This coin possesses lovely soft old toning, and is wonderfully struck, with every detail clear, including traces of the bottom of the “One’, a characteristic sel- dom seen, and only found on the highest grade examples. This exciting highlight has already attracted significant interest, and its estimate of $150,000 may well prove to be conservative. As with anything that is both extremely rare and the finest known, when offered at auction, it is ulti- mately up to those on the floor to decide. Catalogues for Sale 71 will be avail- able in mid August, and can also be downloaded then from IAG’s website at www.iagauctions.com along with other relevant auction information, or contact IAG direct on Phone (07) 55 380 300 - Fax (07) 55 387 296 for a yearly catalogue subscription or any other further confi- dential information. � � �
