Coin of the week

 

Yes, this delightful Abingdon Head silver unit was Coin of the Week in September. Now, three months later, we bring it to your attention again. It is still as rare as it was in September (only six other examples known). It is every bit as intriguing as it was three months ago (why are there three horses on the reverse, one of them with three wavy tails?) And it is just as unmistakably British in its design as when we first presented it to you (where else would you find such a chatty looking woman with her left ear lower than the level of her wide-open mouth?) But there is now a big difference. In Chris Rudd's January Sale, where everything is hugely reduced in price, you'll be able to buy this most elusive Abingdon Head for much less than you could in List 83.                                                                        19.12.05
