Welcome to Australian Coin Auctions Sale 321! To be conducted on Tuesday and Wednesday 3 & 4 May 2016, and comprising 2,950 lots, this important public sale is distinguished by an impressive array of material from a broad range of collectable fields. Held at Box Hill Town Hall, our last two sales were tremendously successful. We are delighted that this venue will also host to Sale 321. Our pre-sale viewing will once again take place at the company’s head office in Mitcham, and I highly recommend you visit us to review the wealth of material in person. Just some of the extensive array of highlights in Sale 321… • A formidable collection of Australian and overseas military ‘trench art’ items from WWI to the Vietnam War – likely to be the largest collection ever seen at public auction • High quality Proclamation gold and a wealth of other world gold coins and medallions, including the largest assembly of Krugerrands (11), USA $10 Eagles (15) and $20 Double Eagles (23) ever offered by us in one sale

My thanks go to the many vendors for providing us with such a diverse selection of material for the sale. I also make special mention of the invaluable efforts of Auction staff who have put in an enormous effort in compiling this catalogue. I encourage you to explore the catalogue closely to study and appreciate its contents and quality. Please note that post-sale collection of lots from Mitcham on the Thursday and Friday after the sale will be conducted on an appointment-only basis.

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.

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

Sale No. 321

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 this prefix (e.g. aEF) indicates that the

item is almost at the grading designated.

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

Agent Bidding

1. 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.

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.

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 absentee bid received. Absentee bidders should bid early, as first bids at the same level receive priority. 3. If so requested, room buyers maybe required to pay the whole or part of the purchase price at the sale. Failure to comply with this rule in respect of any lot entitles the Auctioneer to re-sell the lot or lots with any resulting deficiency being made good by the defaulter. 4. The Auctioneer reserves the right to (a) refuse any bid and (b) bid on behalf of clients. While every care and attention is taken in executing bids and written instructions, the Auctioneer regrets that he/she cannot accept responsibility for any errors.

Agents will be responsible for any non-payment or shortfall of accounts.

Payment Terms 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.

Clearance of cheques and confirmation of direct deposits will delay collection/delivery.

Purchaser Responsibilities

6. In the event of any dispute, the Auctioneer shall have sole discretion to resolve the dispute and may re-offer the disputed lot.

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.

Reserve Price

Delivery/Collection of Lots

7. Bids below 60% of the published estimate will not be accepted.

13. Lots can be picked up from 3 Redland Drive Mitcham. No lots will be delivered to buyers without payment in full. Lots purchased on behalf of absentee 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 or collected during the Auction.

5. The Auctioneer shall not be liable to the vendor for any default of the Purchaser or Vendor.

Disputes

Buyer’s Premium 8. A 19.25% buyer’s premium (including GST) with a minimum charge of $8 per lot 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.

The submission of absentee bids constitutes registration; though the Auctioneer reserves the right to further establish the bona fides of such bidders and require a security deposit or credit card details prior to acceptance of the bids.

Clients unknown to Downies Australian Coin Auctions must register no later than 24 hours prior to the commencement of the sale.

Page 4

Absentee and room bidders may vary these delivery methods, but at their own risk. Such alterations must be advised in advance.

General 14. Each lot is sold as genuine and correctly described. Unless described, all official packaging and relevant certificates are presented within the lot. 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/she 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.

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. 17. No lot is to be rejected if the purchaser or their agent has inspected the lot prior to the sale, irrespective of whether or not any item or items are incorrectly described. 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.

Viewing Downies Australian Coin Auctions will apply the following strict guidelines for intending auction viewers: •

Viewers will be admitted to the viewing room subject to positive proof of identity – this requires the furnishing of a Government issue photo ID (such as a driver licence, passport).

Helpful Advice for Absentee and New 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.

Purchase of lots on extension (extended payment terms) will NOT be permitted

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 absentee bidders and believe that our grading and pricing policies work to the mutual long term benefit of both the customer and our Company.

of your bid. Obviously, you may submit a bid well above 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.

Your bids will be executed in the strictest confidence by an official representative of the Company. They will be regarded as the maximum bids that you are prepared to pay and we will always try to purchase on your behalf at a price lower than your maximum bids given.

If you are interested in a number of lots, but only wish to spend a limited amount of money, please write your bids and then clearly indicate, in the space provided, the maximum amount you wish to spend.

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 very clear on the bid sheet.

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.

In preparing your bids, it is important to note that a 19.25% buyer’s commission including GST is added to the knock down price of each lot. Do not add commission to your maximum bid.

On items that you anticipate the price may far exceed the estimate, we can offer you some flexibility in the execution

Remember that successful absentee bids at the same level will be awarded to the earliest bidder at that level – SO BID EARLY! And please note that bids submitted by normal mail may be affected by recent Australia Post delivery policy changes.
