Sir John Evans said this head cannot be paralleled in the whole British series (The coins of the ancient Britons, 1864, p.322). It may be of Cunobelinus himself or it may be of the sun-god Belenus ‘the shining one’ or ‘the strong one’. Although this type is classed as no scarcer than ‘Rare’, it hardly ever seems to turn up these days and, when it does, inevitably commands a premium price, such is its popularity with collectors. Most of the 36 examples recorder by the CCI aren’t as sharp as this one.

If the harmony and the aristocratic inner peace of the portraits are the first thing that catches our attention, it is the extremely detailed rendering of the figures, especially on the reverse, that makes the viewer cling more to their admiration for this coin. Each depiction of Athena’s head in these emissions of Pharsalos makes us believe that she has her own character and that no two are the same, even though they share the same characteristics. Athena in our coin looks like a tender girl with a serious but innocent look in her eyes. Her divine power, despite her young age, is not violent; it is simply inherent in the serenity of her gaze. On the other hand, the detailed rendering of the cavalryman’s and horse’s face, the texture of his chlamys, the harmonious matching of muscles and joints in the horse’s body, and even the pronounced veins in the horse’s belly convince us of a talented engraver and a gifted artist.

The reverse type features Athena fighting the giant named Enceladus during the Gigantomachy, the war between the Giants and the gods. This scene appeared in art as early as the sixth century BC on an Attic black-figure pot, and is referenced in Euripides’ Ion. Ancient poets located the burial spot of Enceladus under Mount Etna in Sicily, and the volcano’s eruptions were said to be the breath of the giant, and the tremors caused by him rolling over under the mountain.

The usurper L. Domitius Alexander (Alexander of Carthage) was governor of Africa and had sworn allegiance to Maxentius, securing the all-important Carthaginian grain supply for Rome. Constantine and Maximian convinced Alexander to renege on this alliance, and thus he deserted to their camp and halted the grain shipments, causing famine and severe rioting in Rome. Maxentius sent his praetorian prefect, Volusian, with several Legions to North Africa to put an end to Alexander’s revolt, and when Constantine and Maximian offered no help, Volusian’s legions swiftly defeated Alexander and his troops. Alexander himself was captured and strangled shortly thereafter.

From the private collection of author and historian Dr DeWitt Bailey; thence by descent to his grandson.
The year 1861 was a time of upheaval for the New Orleans Mint. It began under US control, but Louisiana’s secession in early 1861 led to a brief period of state-run coinage. With Louisiana joining the Confederacy, production continued until the mint ran out of blanks. This seemingly minor detail, a die crack running from Liberty’s nose, holds immense historical significance. Early in the Confederacy’s existence, four half dollars were struck using a proposed new reverse die paired with a standard US obverse die. This specific die had the telltale crack. Further production by the Confederacy used the same cracked obverse die alongside a different reverse die. This, along with the later die state of the crack, confirms Confederate minting beyond the initial four coins. Extensive research by Wiley and Bugert identified specific die pairings as definitive proof of Confederate coinage. The Confederacy’s official coin production was minimal, limited to a small number of cents (mostly restrikes) that never saw full circulation. Therefore, these half dollars with the die crack stand as exceptional historical artifacts, minted during the Confederacy’s infancy in the spring of 1861.

4. Dimensions, weights and colour: All dimensions and weights (including ring sizes) are approximate and are for general guidance only; a single dimension given is normally the greatest dimension for the piece(s).

The Lot may vary slightly from those images.
5. Condition: A condition statement for Lots

This does not infer that any Lot is free from faults and prospective Bidders must satisfy themselves entirely as to the fullcondition of each piece before placing Bids. Condition Reports may be requested for any lot but are given only for general guidance and are inevitably subjective in character. Requests for Condition Reports should be made as early as possible; requests received at a late time may not be available before the lot is offered.

If a Buyer requests for TimeLine to apply for an Export Licence where this is not legally required, an additional fee of £24 (VAT inclusive) will be invoiced to the Buyer. Buyers are advised to check concerning any Regulations applicable in their country of residence regarding importation and to enquire prior to bidding.

b. Submitting a valid importer statement for
Category C items (objects >200 years old valued ≥ €18,000).
c. Providing proof of lawful export from the country of origin (including the UK) where applicable.
11.

a. Provenance and ownership of the relevant Lot.
b. Customs export declaration from the UK.
c. Any UK cultural property export licences (if required under the UK’s own export control regime).

The Buyer is obligated to make all and any enquiries he wishes as to the accuracy and authenticity of any sale description (including Condition, Dating and Attributions, as set out in clauses 7-9).The principle of caveat emptor applies except where expressly excluded by operation of law. While materials (such as catalogues) are vetted by an external committee of experts, TimeLine do not make or give any guarantee, warranty or representation or undertake any duty of care in relation to the description, illustrations or photographs of any Lot, including condition, quality, provenance, authenticity, background, style, period, age, origin, value and estimated selling price. TimeLine undertakes no obligation to examine, investigate or carry out any tests either in sufficient depth or at all to establish the accuracy or otherwise of any description or opinions given by TimeLine whether in the catalogue or elsewhere. Lots comprising Groups are sold strictly subject to them not being returnable for any reason whatsoever; the provisions set out under clause 45 are specifically excluded in respect of such Lots. For coins that have been authenticated, graded and
