Glendining & Co., A.H. Baldwin & Sons Ltd. ENGLISH COINS & MEDALS (CHARLES I - ANNE) AND COLONIAL COINS COLLECTED BY ARCHBISHOP SHARP (1645-1745). October 8, 1977. crown 4to. 1-481 Lots. Original pictorial card covers. Public Auction Sale. London. 36, (2) pages. 26 b&w coin plates. PEL laid in. Fine. This auction sale catalog includes numismatic material from Great Britain as collected by Archbishop Sharp (1645-1745). This sale comprises English Coins and Commemorative Medals in gold, silver and copper from Charles I to 1714, the date of the archbishop's death, and Colonial Coins, mostly Early American, of the same period. Although some items were undoubtedly put into the collection after 1714 by the archbishop's descendants, e.g., Lot 294, the medal of Inigo Jones by John Kirk, nearly all were without any doubt collected during the archbishop's own lifetime. As with many old collections, the quality of the coins varies considerably, though many later pieces of William III and Anne are very often in exceptionally good condition. As might be expected, several varieties came to light when cataloguing, coins not recorded in E.S.C. or B.M.C. (Copper). Lot weight: 0 lbs 7oz. Subject(s): British Coinage, Medals.
