1805 Silver George III Penny by Taylor
1051553 | GREAT BRITAIN. George III. (King, 1760-1820). 1805-SOHO AR Restrike Pattern Penny. NGC PR67✭ UCAM (Ultra Cameo). By William J. Taylor. Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust right, K :· on truncation of arm / Britannia seated left on rocky outcropping with SOHO, holding olive branch and trident; Union shield to right; K between trident and shield; in background to left, ship under sail right on sea. Peck 1293.
Produced from the original Soho Mint dies after the mint’s closure in 1848; Taylor produced but a handful of each pattern type, few of which can be truthfully dubbed ‘restrikes’ due to their die-combinations never having been produced prior to Taylor’s efforts. This present piece is one such pattern, as no currency Pennies were produced in 1805, and indeed the 1805 dated reverse die is one produced by Taylor himself by modifying an earlier type. An exceedingly rare type in silver and certainly the finest known. Awarded the star designation by NGC for exceptional eye appeal.
$18,500
11 Piece 1826 George IV Proof Set
1051835 | GREAT BRITAIN. George IV. 1826 AV, AR, and Bronzed Copper 11-Piece Proof Set. PCGS PR63-PR65DCAM (Deep Cameo).

SCBCPS1; Friedberg 373/374, 377a, 380a; WR-213, 228, 237, 249.
We note that a PCGS PR63 DCAM 1826 Five Pounds (without the full set) realized $228,000 including the Buyer’s Premium at public auction in January, 2018. A superb set and extremely rare in this quality.
Includes later (20th Century) leather and velvet case by Spink & Son.
$239,000
Possibly Unique Gothic Crown Uniface Trial in Fine Silver
1051400 | GREAT BRITAIN. Victoria. (Queen, 1837-1901). 1846-1847 (ND) AR Uniface Trial Strike Gothic Crown. NGC MS65. Edge: Plain. 33mm. 22.24gm. Bust, left / Blank. LS-67 Variant in Silver.
An exceedingly rare and almost certainly unique trial for the Gothic Crown. This piece is struck in sterling silver (.9614) and unlisted as such; Linecar and Stone notes a “Trial of Puncheon” in white metal as L&S-67 that sold in the Lingford sale (1950, lot 587) for £4 16s. and was described there as “Extremely fine and probably UNIQUE.” The portrait on this trial is of finer style and higher relief than the regular issue, with signficantly more detail on the crown, hair and bodice. In our opinion this was more likely struck in 1846 than 1847 or 1853, as it seems to be the prototype rather than the final design, likely engraved in more shallow relief to extend die life. Beautifully toned gem.
$45,000
Stunning 1859 Zürich Shooting Festival 5 Francs
1051534 | SWITZERLAND. 1859 AR 5 Francs Shooting Thaler. PCGS SP66. City arms with lion supporters / Huntsman standing with gun. X S5; Richter 1723.
Struck to commemorate the Federal Shooting Festival held in Zurich. Exceedingly rare in this prooflike presentation format; sharp raised rims and reflective fields. Superb and exceptional.
