This week at Duggleby’s brings together two very different sales, each with strong collector appeal. The Coins, Banknotes & Stamps Sale offers historic coins, precious metal issues, modern Royal Mint collectables and philatelic material, while the Luxury & Designer Accessories Sale presents an exceptional single-owner collection of handbags, outerwear, footwear, scarves and accessories from leading fashion houses.
From centuries of monetary history to statement pieces from Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Fendi, Prada and Dolce & Gabbana, there is plenty to explore across both catalogues.
Coins, Banknotes & Stamps
The Coins, Banknotes & Stamps Sale spans centuries of history, design and collectability, with highlights ranging from Stuart silver to modern gold and silver Royal Mint issues.
Lot 2504, a
Charles II 1672 silver crown coin, is a strong historic highlight. The crown was one of the great silver denominations of the period, and examples from the reign of Charles II carry the appeal of Restoration history, portraiture and substantial silver content. Presented in a Hattons of London case, it offers an attractive opportunity for collectors of early milled British coinage.
Estimate: £200 to £400.
Lot 2544, a
George IV 1821 gold full sovereign, brings precious metal value together with royal and numismatic interest. The 1821 sovereign belongs to the early years of George IV’s reign and remains a desirable issue for collectors of British gold coinage, offering both historic appeal and the enduring popularity of the full sovereign format.
Estimate: £600 to £900.
Lot 2571, a
Queen Elizabeth II 2019 ‘Yale of Beaufort’ one ounce fine gold £100 coin, is one of the highest value lots in the sale. Encapsulated by PCGS, it forms part of the Royal Mint’s Queen’s Beasts series, a popular modern collection inspired by the heraldic beasts that stood guard at Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation. With one ounce of fine gold and third-party encapsulation, it is a strong modern precious metal issue.
Estimate: £2,500 to £3,500.
