Gradings and terminology used in this catalogue
Proof: Proof coins are the most beautiful coins imaginable.
They are struck using specially hardened dies, and highly
polished blanks. The result is a coin of great clarity and depth
of detail. Most modern Proofs (1966 onwards) contrast a
brilliant mirror background against delicately frosted detail.
Prooflike: Often a non-official mint strike, or medallic in
nature.
Brilliant Uncirculated (B/Unc) or choice Unc:
Uncirculated, but with higher than normal sheen.
Uncirculated (Unc): An uncirculated or unused item.
Full detail, no wear, brilliance and lustre are hallmarks of an
uncirculated coin, whereas no bends, folds or staining are
qualities of an uncirculated banknote.
Extremely Fine (EF): Coins show only traces of wear to
the high points of the design and only light surface marks
from circulating. Otherwise the design is clear and sharp and
the coin will have much lustre. Notes are clean and crisp with
only the slightest signs of creases and folds.
have clear signs of soiling and heavy creasing, possibly also
some tearing.
Very Good (VG): Most details of a coin’s design will be
all but gone, but the basic design and date are still visible.
Notes of this grade are near the end of their useful life, and
are of little value unless they are very scarce or rare.
choice: An exceptional example of the given grade.
good (g): Use of the prefix good (e.g. gVF) indicates that
the item is slightly better than the grade stated.
about (a): Use of the prefix (e.g. aEF) indicates that the item
is almost at the grading designated.
References commonly used:
•
•
•
Very Fine (VF): Lustre has gone and there will be flatness
•
on the design of a coin. Other traces of wear may also be
evident. Banknotes of this grade will show distinct signs of
handling though the paper will still be reasonably crisp.
•
Fine (F): The effects of handling will be quite evident from
the amount of flatness to the design of a coin. Notes will

Terms and Conditions
It is important that bidders make themselves aware of the following. Do not bid if you are
not prepared to comply fully with the terms and conditions for this auction.
Purchaser
Payment Terms
1.
11. Title of purchased lots shall not pass until the purchase
price and buyer’s expenses are paid in full with cleared
funds in Australian Dollars. We accept Cash, EFTPOS,
Electronic Funds Transfer, Bank or Personal Cheque and
Credit Card (subject to surcharge). Overseas buyers not
using credit card facilities will be required to add AUD
$20 to payments to cover bank charges; this will appear
on the buyer’s invoice.
The purchaser is to be the highest bidder. Any dispute
arising as to the highest bidder will be determined by the
Auctioneer who may re-offer any disputed lot.
Auctioneer
2.
The Auctioneer shall regulate all bidding. Usual
procedure is for bids to be advanced by not less than
5% on the previous bid. The Auctioneer’s starting price
shall be one bid over the second highest postal bid
received. Postal bidders should bid early, as first bids at
the same level receive priority.
3.
If so requested, buyers shall give their name and address
and/or pay the whole or part of the purchase price at the
sale. Failure to comply with these rules in respect of any
lot entitles the Auctioneer to re-sell any lot, any resulting
deficiency being made good by the defaulter.
4.
The Auctioneer reserves the right to (a) refuse any bid, (b)
bid on behalf of clients. While every care and attention
is taken in executing bids and written instructions, the
Auctioneer regrets that he cannot accept responsibility
for any errors.
5.
The Auctioneer shall not be liable for any default of the
Purchaser or Vendor.
Disputes
6.
In the event of any dispute, the Auctioneer shall have
sole discretion to resolve the dispute and may re-offer
the disputed lot.
Purchaser Responsibilities
12. The buyer of each lot is to be responsible for it from the
time it is “knocked down”. Payment is to be made in full
with cleared funds before delivery or collection. The lot(s)
are to be paid for by Australian buyers within two days
of receiving the invoice, and by overseas buyers within
7 days of receiving the invoice. A service charge of
2% per month will be added to all overdue accounts.
Failure to pay in full within the specified time also entitles
the Auctioneer to re-sell the lots, with any resulting
deficiency being made good by the defaulter.
Delivery/Collection of Lots
13. Lots can be picked up from our Auction Rooms, Lower
Ground Floor, Block Arcade from 10 am Friday,
29 October 2010. No lots will be delivered to buyers
without payment in full. Lots purchased on behalf of
postal bidders will be fowarded, fully insured, by the
most practical method at the risk of the purchaser who
shall bear all costs incurred. No lots will be delivered
during the Auction. Note that payment and collection of
goods must be completed by Friday, 12 November 2010.
Reserve Price
General
7.
14. Each lot is sold as genuine and correctly described. The
purchaser is at liberty to return the lot by giving written
notice with seven days (or in the case of overseas
buyers, within 14 days) of the sale, if he proves that the
lot is not genuine or not correctly described. The onus on
proving a lot to be not genuine lies with the purchaser.
Proof of the inability of a recognised expert to express a
definite opinion will not discharge this onus.
Bids below 60% of estimate will not be accepted.
Buyer’s Premium
8.
A 19.25% buyer’s premium (including GST) will be
added to the hammer price of each lot and is payable
by ALL buyers.
Bidder Details
9.
All bidders must complete a bidder’s registration form
and supply sufficient information and references as
required by Downies Australian Coin Auctions – this
will require the furnishing of sufficient proof of identity.
Clients unknown to Downies Australian Coin Auctions
must register no later than 24 hours prior to the
commencement of the sale.
Agents Bidding
10. Agents bidding on behalf of disclosed and undisclosed
clients do so on their own responsibility both for
payment and safe delivery of the lots.
Page 4
15. Watches, instruments and devices with working
mechanisms are verified to be accurately described.
Whilst every care is taken to provide secure packaging
for all items in transit, no responsibility may be assigned
to the Auctioneer for lots which are described as being
‘in working order’ but are found to be not working at time
of receipt. Such lots are sold “as is” and are not subject
to return.
16. No lot is to be rejected if subsequent to the sale it
has been removed from its sealed holder and/or has
been treated by any process, unless the Auctioneer’s
permission to subject the lot to such treatment has first
been obtained in writing.

Sale No. 306
17. No lot is to be rejected if the purchaser or his agent has
inspected the lot prior to the sale, irrespective of whether
or not any item or items are incorrectly described.
Viewing
18. Failure on the part of the bidder or purchaser to comply
with the conditions stated previously, entitles the
Auctioneer to cause the bidder or purchaser to forfeit
any deposit held. Any uncleared lots may be re-sold by
public or private sale and any resultant deficiency shall
be made good by the defaulter.
•
Viewers will be admitted to the viewing room subject to

Helpful Advice for Absentee Bidders
•
As a bidder at our Public Auction, you will be able to
decide the level at which you would like to purchase an
item. To assist bidders in the preparation of their bids,
the Auctioneer has set an “estimated market price” on
each lot. This is a conservative guide to the market value
of the items described and you may bid above or below
this estimate.
•
Please note however, that bids below 60% of this
estimate will not be processed.
•
Our descriptions are complete and our grading is
conservative. Our aim is to give you the best possible
guide to the actual condition of the item you are seeking.
We value our postal bidders and believe that our grading
and pricing policies work to the mutual long term benefit
of both the customer and our Company.
the estimate and this will be treated as your maximum
bid (excluding the buyer’s commission). Alternatively,
you can place a conservative bid and, if the bidding
far exceeds it, you can elect to increase that bid by a
fixed percentage. The higher bid will only be executed
if necessary, and strictly according to your instructions.
Please fill in the appropriate space on the bid sheet if
this is required.
•
If you are interested in a number of lots, but only wish to
spend a limited amount of money, please mark your bids and
then clearly indicate in the space provided, the maximum
amount you wish to spend.
•
In preparing your bids, it is important to note that a
19.25% buyer’s commission is added to the knock down
price of each lot (includes GST).
•
Your bid will be executed in the strictest confidence
by an official representative of the Company. It will be
regarded as the maximum bid that you are prepared to
pay and we will always try to purchase on your behalf at
a price lower than your maximum bid given.
•
If you are interested in a particular item, and there are
two or more identical lots; you can clearly indicate on
your bid sheet that you wish to bid for “one only” (or
more) of the nominated lots on offer. This must be made
clear on the bid sheet.
•
On items that you anticipate the price may far exceed the
estimate, we can offer you some flexibility in the execution
of your bid. Obviously, you may submit a bid well above
•
Remember, the benefit is yours by buying at Public
Auction: you can decide exactly what you want to pay
for any item, and bid to that level.
Remember that successful absentee bids at the same level will be awarded to the earliest bid at that level – so bid early.

“Asia”, hand-coloured engraved map c.1800-1803 showing
Russia from the Volga to Kamchatka, central and southern Asia
from Turkey to the Orient and the Indian Ocean from Madagascar
to New Guinea, but the main interest is that of New Holland with
geographic nomenclature of the time showing Whits Land and
Edels Land in the west and New South Wales in the east plus
several coastal features, some foxing which does not detract,
framed and glazed, printed area 210x180mm, a nice map of
the Asian/Indian Ocean region with significant Australian historic
interest, drawn at a time when the continental shape of Australia
was still not fully known
Van Diemen’s Land is shown separated from the mainland by ‘Basses
Strait’ putting the date to c.1800 but the southern coastline between
today’s Esperance in the west and Wilson’s Promontory in the east
appears only as a straight line without any features other than Western
Port Bay which is only very slightly indicated as an indentation
(without Philip or French Islands) and Port Phillip Bay not shown at
all, so presumably drawn before the discoveries made by Matthew
Flinders and Baudin during their respective voyages of 1802-1803
became known to the world

New South Wales Dump 1813 Type E/3, a new find and not
previously seen in the marketplace, severely holed, Fair, but a very
rare type
Mira states in his “Classification of the New South Wales Dumps”
that types A/1 and D/2 account for about 95% of surviving
specimens with only 12 examples of E/3 known at that time, its
rarity only exceeded by Type C/4. He proposed that the crude
nature of E/3 and C/4 indicated them to be trials for the major
working dies of A/1 and D/2. Surviving examples indicate that they
certainly circulated as currency and regardless of the ‘trial die’
theory, the E/3 undoubtedly remains a key rarity of the Dump series

1855 undoubtedly one of the most difficult dates to acquire in the
entire Half Sovereign series, missing from most collections and a
key Australian rarity, a nice problem-free VG, evenly struck with
attractive visual appeal
The Reserve Bank of Australia Gold Coin Auction (Downies
November 2005) had four examples of comparable grade which
sold at a hammer price of between $20,000 and $25,000 each,
while another example graded only slightly better at aFine sold
for $41,000, The present coin certainly ranks equal to the four
VG-graded coins in that sale. Lack of availability of this date since
2005 and general upward shift in prices of rarities make this a
very attractive prospect indeed

1917, in fitted case of issue impressed “Verdun”, As Struck
The Verdun medal was created on 20 November 1916 by the
Municipal Council of Verdun to commemorate the heroism of its
French defenders. Originally intended to be awarded to those who
served on the Verdun front between 21st February 1916 and 2nd
November 1916, the medal was, in fact, awarded to those who
served anywhere on the Argonne and St Mihiel sectors between
31st July 1914 and 11th November 1918, including soldiers of
other allied countries. This medal is the official and most commonly
found, many other versions of different design were produced at

Under Mussolini’s initiation to shift aviation manufacturing from the
north to central Italy, the Savoia Marchetti aircraft manufacturing
company set up a new plant at Jesi in 1939 to continue the production
of combat aircraft which had commenced for the use of the Italian
contingent supporting Franco and the Nationalists during the Spanish
Civil War in 1936. By the time Italy joined the war in 1940 its air force
was equipped with a large complement of SM79 bombers, considered
by many to be one of the best torpedo bombers of the War, as well as
being used by air forces of several other nations.

Wreck of the Saint-Geran, Philip V Eight Reales 1738MF of Mexico
(KM103) numerous scratches and an impact mark on obverse, aVF
Stated by the vendor to be from the Saint-Geran but lacking
provenance certificate.
The 600-ton French ship ‘Saint-Geran’ was wrecked during a
storm off Ile d’Ambre on the north-east coast of Mauritius on 17th
August 1744 with the loss of the entire cargo including 25,000
Piastres of silver coin. Of almost 200 people on board, only nine
survived. The remains of the Saint-Geran then lay undisturbed
until 1966 when amateur scuba divers discovered the wreck and
destroyed the site with dynamite to plunder the treasure. Many
coins were thus procured before legislation was invoked to protect
what cultural heritage still remained at the wreck site. Official
‘salvors’ certification often does not accompany Saint-Geran coins
so provenance is conjectural

British Australian Gold Mining Company (offices at Moorgate Street
London and George Street Sydney: capital in 200,000 shares of £1
each) certificate for five shares, dated on the back 1st December
1851, a very early gold mining certificate and very scarce
The year 1851 was a cornerstone in Australia’s history. The first
discovery of payable gold in Australia was made at Ophir near
Bathurst NSW (February). This was followed by the Victorian
discoveries at Warrandyte (July), Clunes (July), Buninyong (August),
Castlemaine (September) and Bendigo (October). Issued just weeks
and months after these events, this certificate ranks alongside the
earliest gold mining enterprises in Australia and pre-dates some of
the substantial discoveries such as Beechworth, Omeo and Walhalla.

The only release of the serial 000000 has been for sheets
auctioned for charity in Sydney over the last few years. This is
one of the very few notes with this serial released into circulation
in the last 36 years since the hand numbering of 000000 notes
with a “1” ceased. Common practice since that time has been
the removal and destruction of the note. An article was published
in an Australian Coin Review several years ago alluding to that
fact. This is therefore an accidental release of such a note in
Uncirculated condition, and together with the 999999 note that is
often destroyed because of poor inking on the rollers, this is truly
a unique pair
