*This is an excessively rare piece produced by Reginald Huth (1853-1926). Huth was an eccentric numismatist and a member of a family of financiers in the City of London. From an Irish numismatic history viewpoint he is best known for his patterns of 1900 when he commemorated Queen Victoria's visit to Ireland with a series of superbly detailed pattern Double Florins, Three Shillings and Forty Pence coins. He eventually commissioned a small selection of pattern Double Florins, Twelve Groats and smaller 'Octorino' (Eight Pence) coins in the early years of George V's reign. Huth campaigned for the reintroduction of the silver Double Florin coin which sadly was never seen in circulation again after 1890. He also produced several stunning patterns for Hawaii and Spain, which are now avidly collected items.

Great Britain. Maundy Set, 1953 NGC MS65. S.4126; ESC-2570 (R2); KM-MDS212. Elizabeth II. Obverse, young portrait of HM Queen by Mary Gillick right. Reverse, crowned numeral within wreath to denote denomination. Superb mint state, and toning lightly. The rarest of all 20th century Maundy sets. Lot of 4 coins. NGC graded All MS-65. Estimate Value $1,000 - 1,200
* The 1953 Maundy ceremony took place at St Paul's Cathedral in early April of that year, several weeks before the Queen was crowned at Westminster Abbey on 2nd June. Queen Elizabeth was accompanied at this her first Maundy ceremony by Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
It is said that most of the Maundy coin sets in 1953 were taken away by overseas visitors at the time of the Coronation, and of the small number made, many sets did not survive or were later scuffed and damaged. Consequently, the current catalogue value of a basic mint state set is around $1500.

Lot 3241
Great Britain. Uniface Silver Pattern 20 Pence or Double Florin. Elizabeth II. Struck at the Royal Mint in 1963 to the same dimensions (36mm diameter) as the Victorian Four Shilling coin. Obverse portrait of Queen Elizabeth II (without legend) by Machin. Reverse is intentionally blank. This is an extremely rare coin (probably only 2-3 pieces known) which formed a part of the Mint's numismatic experiments, before the dawn of decimalisation. Eventually a small multi-sided and quite different 20 pence coin was introduced in 1982, but some 19 years earlier the Royal Mint had obviously contemplated the provision of a 36mm diameter decimal 20 pence which would take the place of the (larger) 25 pence Crown coin.
