The Hejaz Railway was first proposed in 1864 to transport pilgrims from Damascus toMedina. Sponsored by Sultan Abdul Hamed the Khedive of Egypt, and the Shah of Iran, theline was funded by subscriptions from Muslims around the world, planned by Germanengineers, and built by a multi racial workforce of 5,000 that included Turkish militaryconscripts. Although the Bedouin tribes prevented the line extending beyond Medina, 1,320kilometers of track were successfully laid, cutting the journey time from Damascus to Medinafrom two months to only 55 hours. From its outset the railway was the target of attacks by localArab tribesmen who insisted on using the wooden sleepers to fuel their camp fires. During the1914-18 war the railway became a prime target for more regular saboteurs led by the BritishIntelligence officer and explosives expert T E Lawrence. The intention was to disrupt theservice by blowing up the engines but not completely destroy the line, and so accurate was thework that tickets were priced accordingly, the safer seats at the back of the train selling for fivetimes the price of the seats at the front.

An enigmatic piece, provisionally attributed to Apollonia. Among Apollo’s severalattributes was his role as ‘the Healer’, which his son Asklepios became more associated with.Strabo refers (7.6.1) to a large statue of Apollo at Apollonia by the fifth century Atheniansculptor Kalamis, which was purloined by the Romans under the Macedonian governor M.Terentius Varro Lucullus in the first century BC (Pliny, NH 34.18.39). It is tempting toaccept that this is the statue represented here.

A SELECTION OF LATE ROMAN SILVER COINS FROM THE GUSSAGE ALL SAINTS, DORSET, HOARD

WWW.SPINK.COM

ANCIENT, BRITISH AND FOREIGN COINS AND COMMEMORATIVE MEDALS

The Gussage All Saints hoard of 662 late Roman silver coins was found on 21 March 2010 on ploughed land in the parish ofGussage All Saints, Dorset. The hoard was contained in a small earthenware flagon which was lifted and the taken to the BritishMuseum in London where the coins were then removed and conserved. The hoard comprised 653 Siliquae and nine Miliarenses.Curiously the Miliarenses were found at the top, in the neck of the flagon, which suggest careful packing of the coins into the potat the time of concealment. The earliest coins were issues of Constantius II, struck 355-61 and the latest issue of Arcadius andHonorius from the Milan mint struck c.395-402. In addition to coins of these emperors, Julian II (as Caesar and Augustus),Jovian, Valentinian I, Valens, Gratian, Valentinian II, Theodosius I, Magnus Maximus, Flavius Victor and Eugenius were allrepresented. A small number of coins could not be attributed with certainty to a specific emperors and a few others were blunderedand irregular issues. The composition of the hoard by emperor and denomination was

MiliarensesSiliquae Constantius II (337-61) 20 Julian II (360-63) 1 52 Jovian (363-64) 5Valentinian I (364-75) 1 9 Valens (364-78) 3 75 Gratian (367-83) 2 68 Valentinian II (375-92) 38 Theodosius I (379-95) 69 Magnus Maximus (383-88) 1 72 Flavius Victor (387-88) 9 Eugenius (392-94) 1 33 Arcadius (383-408) 101 Honorius (393-423) 65 Uncertain 21 Irregular 16 TOTAL 9 653

The majority of the coins were from the Trier (357 coins) and Milan (138) mints. Other Western Empire mints representedwere Lyon (51), Arles (44), Rome (27) and Aquileia (17). In addition there were a small number of Eastern Empire mints withSiscia (3 coins), Sirmium (3), Thessalonica (1), Constantinople (4), Nicomedia (2) and Antioch (6).

The composition of the Gussage All Saints hoard is comparable to the much larger and more famous Hoxne hoard in the BritishMuseum. In comparison, Gussage All Saints has a higher percentage of coins of Trier as opposed to Milan and a higherproportion dating from 378-95, perhaps reflecting it’s slightly earlier deposition than Hoxne. Many of the coins have beensubject to a low level of clipping, a practise common to British found Siliquae of this period, however the extent of clipping isfar less severe than that noted for the Hoxne find. This, along with the content of the hoard, suggests a date of deposition of c.410. The hoard therefore dates from the period when the Western imperial government, beset with the collapse of the Rhinefrontier and invasions in Gaul and Italy, relinquished its authority over the British province which was left to its own devices andincreasingly vulnerable to Germanic and Irish raiding.

The Hoard was brought to Spink earlier this year after it completed the Treasure process. One coin was retained by the BritishMuseum. We are pleased to offer each variety of the Miliarenses, a selection of the best of the Siliquae along with a few ‘largelots’ and the flagon in which the hoard was found.

A COLLECTION OF TENTH CENTURY PENNIES - THE PROPERTY OF A GENTLEMAN

This collection, formed between 5 and 10 years ago, is notable for its coins of Edward the Elder and Eadgar, and has a goodrepresentation of types associated with the North Eastern group of coins for each monarch. The Edward the Elder group containsseven examples of the late Horizontal type for a number of different moneyers, some of whom are known for the Danelaw St.Eadmund memorial coinage from a few years earlier. Eadgar is represented by twelve coins, all the Horizontal type North Easternvariety V, from the 1945 Tetney, Lincolnshire, hoard. In addition there is a very rare double reverse York penny of Athelstan anda three line penny of Eadwig, along with examples of a number of other varieties for each monarch dating from before the Eadgar’sreform of c.973.

PROVENANCE:Bt. Baldwin, January 2001 With old collectors ticket

Regnald is thought to have been appointed as Aethelstan’s moneyer at York after hecaptured the city in 927. With these double reverse coins, omitting the obverse with the royaltitle known for more five reverse dies, it is possible that the double reverse was deliberate.Blunt suggested that this may relate to the Viking raid of 937, which briefly recaptured thecity for the Vikings, a time when Regnald, Athelstan’s moneyer, might have deemed itprudent to avoid showing allegiance. Equally it may simply be an error as double obversecoins are also known, possibly from York (see Blunt, BNJ XLII, 1974, plate xxi, 476).

A COLLECTION OF HIGH GRADE GUINEAS OF GEORGE III - THE PROPERTY OF A GENTLEMAN

This collection, formed between 1999 and 2011, aimed to secure a top grade example for each date the Guinea was issued in thereign of George III. This was by and large achieved with only the issues for 1763, 1770, 1776 and 1792 not acquired. Mintagefigures for each year are derived from data provided by the Royal Mint to the owner based on records for the weight of gold coinedas Guineas in each year divided by the weight of a Guinea. These figures are not thought to have been published previously andprovide some guidance on rarity.

Value Added Tax (VAT)

Charging of (VAT) at AuctionThe information shown on this page sets out the way in which Spink intends toaccount for VAT.

i. Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme1. Where possible, we will offer Lots for sale under the Auctioneers’

Margin Scheme. Such Lots can be identified by the absence of anysymbol next to the Lot number in the catalogue and will not besubject to VAT on the Hammer Price.

2. Where Lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme toVAT–registered businesses, the VAT included within the Buyers’Premium is not recoverable as input tax. Upon request on sale day,we will issue invoices that show VAT separately on both the HammerPrice and the Buyer’s Premium. This will enable VAT-registeredbusinesses to recover the VAT charged as input tax, subject to thenormal rules for recovering input tax.

ii. Zero-Rated LotsLimited Categories of goods, such as books, are Zero-rated (o) for VAT inthe United Kingdom. Such Lots are offered under the Auctioneers’ MarginScheme. In these circumstances no VAT element will be included withinthe Buyer’s Premium.

iii. Daggered LotsLots which are Daggered (†) in the catalogue are subject to VAT at 20%on both the Hammer Price and the Buyer’s Premium.

iv. Starred and Omega LotsLots which are marked (x) in the catalogue are subject to VAT at 5% onthe Hammer Price and 20% on the Buyer’s Premium which is shown asinclusive of VAT. Lots which bear the Omega symbol (Ω) are subject toVAT at 20% on the Hammer Price and on the Buyer’s Premium. Such Lotsbear VAT because the Lot is liable for VAT at this rate on importation intothe EU.

v. Investment Gold LotsLots marked (g) in the catalogue are exempt from VAT on the HammerPrice and are subject to VAT at 20% on the Buyer’s Premium. A refund ofVAT charged on the Buyer’s Premium can also be made on receipt of proofof business as a collectibles dealer.

vi. Imported LotsLots which are marked (x) and Lots which bear the Omega symbol (Ω)have VAT charged on the Hammer Price and Buyers’ Premium becausethey have been imported into the United Kingdom from outside the EU.In these cases we have used a temporary importation procedure, which ineffect means that the point of importation is deferred until the Lot has beensold. At this point the Buyer is treated as the importer and is liable to paythe import VAT due. We will collect the VAT from you and pay it to HMCustoms and Excise on your behalf.
