270 Gupta Empire, Samudragupta I (c.330-70), ¿ Dinar, 7.70g, Ashvamedha horsesacrifice type, horse standing right before yupa (sacrificial post) with streamers attached,letter si below, rajadhirajah prithivim [avijityva divam jayaty-ahritavajimedhah] around,rev. the chief queen (mahasi) standing left holding chowrie over shoulder asvamedhaparakramah right (Bayana hoard plate IV, 1-6; cf BMC Guptas 56-62; MAC 4786-7),body of horse with test cut, edges smoothed, reverse double struck, good very fine, attractive andscarce £2,000-3,000This coin depicts all the elements essential to a successful ashvamedha and its Sanskritlegends describe who could perform the sacrifice and the benefits to its sponsor. Theobverse legend translates as “the king of kings who has first performed the horse sacrificewins heaven after conquering the earth,” and the reverse “because of great victories onemay perform the ashvamedha.” This last indicates that a ruler qualified to hold such aceremony after becoming a chakravartin (literally ‘wheel turner’ or pivotal leader), andperforming a digvijaya, which was a formal process of subjecting the rulers of surroundingkingdoms to him by force. The ceremony started with the selection of a perfect stallionthat was released and allowed to run free for one year. It was closely followed and if itroamed into the territory of an enemy its passage had to be facilitated by force. After ayear it was guided back to the capital for the three-day culmination. The stallion wastethered to a decorated sacrificial pole and ceremonially bathed by the Gupta queens. Onthe third day the chief queen administered the coup de grace with the suchi and the horsewas killed. It is open to conjecture as to why such coins were produced, but it is knownthat such ceremonies were accompanied by much gifting of gold coins to the officiatingbrahmans. It could be that they were special commemorative issues, struck with the dualpurpose of both marking this pivotal event in the life of a Samudragupta and serving aslargesse.

By the 4th century AD there was a clear definition of how a ruler shouldpresent himself to his subjects. Quite apart from being victorious in battle, a sponsor oflavish religious ceremonies and a virile lover, he also had to be perfectly formed andaccomplished in the arts of music and poetry. It is believed that coins of this type wereproduced to publicise Samudragupta’s accomplishments in these fields, just as the ‘lionslayer’ types depict his bravery as a hunter, and the ashvamedha type his piety.

483 Thailand (18th-19th centuries), bronze Gambling Tokens (Bpee) (4), 27mm, open-work design featuring Hanuman, 24mm, 5-armed design both sides, 25mm, 6-spokedwheel, 20.5mm, beaded design, generally very fine or better, rare and interesting (4) £160-200These tokens were introduced to Thailand in the late Ayudhya period (c. late 17th century)by Chinese gambling house owners (Hong), as it was found that the small-denominationspherical “bullet coins” that served as currency at the time were unsuitable. They were issuedin 1-Salung, 1-Fuang, and 2-Pai denominations, but also in lower values such as 200, 100,50 and 25 Cowries, in order to allow those with limited means to gamble. During the reignof King Rama III (1824-1851) they were largely supplanted in the gambling dens byporcelain tokens imported from China. However, by this time the metal tokens had assumeda monetary role in small transactions, especially after 1873, when the metal value of tin andcopper currency coins became higher than their face value and these vanished fromcirculation. In 1875 the use of Bpee as currency became illegal, and the gambling dens wererequired to exchange them for cash, as a series of milled coins was issued from the newSitthikarn mint. They are now surprisingly scarce. There is no definitive catalogue for thesetokens, however references to them can be found in: Coinage of the Rattanakosin Era AD1782-1982, Treasury Dept. Thailand, 1982, p.483. The Evolution of Thai Money, TreasuryDept, Thailand, 2002, p.78. Graham, M. & Winkler, M., Thai Coins, Finance One,Thailand, 1992, pp.88-89.

He noted seven moneyers for this type andconsidered the possibility of an eighth suggested by a fragmentary coin sold in the SNC in1919. This was noted in the SNC as reading +VVIHT...ð MOE and Naismith, whilstconsidering possible names in a footnote, listed this without attribution to a specified moneyer.The name of this moneyer was subsequently confirmed as Wihtnoth with the discovery of a coinwith a clear and complete legend reading +VVIHTNO MOE in 2012 (EMC 2012.0169, foundnear Warminster, Wilts, now Fitzwilliam Museum). This appeared to indicate that the 1919fragmentary coin was also most likely of this moneyer. The newly found example offered here,is better preserved than the other two and further confirms the existence of a West Saxonmoneyer, Wihtnoth. It is struck from different dies to the 2012 recorded coin.

The moneyer Seword, firstappears for the last of these. North noted this as the last issue of this mint. Since North waspublished a single coin of Henry I type IV (annulets and piles) has been attributed to thismint, however there is some doubt about this with it possibly being an issue for Maldon. Therecan be no doubt about the coin in this lot being from Malmesbury as the mint singature MLMis a form attributed to Malmesbury without doubt and the moneyer Seword is alreadyrecorded for this mint a few years earlier than this new coin. As such this coin is the onlydefinite example of this mint for Henry I and one of only a very few from after 1066.

Value Added Tax (VAT)

Charging of (VAT) at Auction

The information shown on this page sets out the way in which Spink intends toaccount for VAT.

i. Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme

1. Where possible, we will offer Lots for sale under the Auctioneers’Margin Scheme. Such Lots can be identified by the absence of anyVAT symbol next to the Lot number in the catalogue and will not besubject to VAT on the Hammer Price.

2. Where Lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme to UKVAT–registered businesses, the VAT on Buyers’ Premium is notrecoverable as input tax. Upon request on sale day, we will issueinvoices that show VAT separately on both the Hammer Price andthe Buyer’s Premium. This will enable VAT-registered businesses torecover the VAT charged as input tax, subject to the normal rules forrecovering input tax.

ii. Zero-Rated Lots

Limited Categories of goods, such as books, are Zero-rated (o) for VAT inthe United Kingdom. Such Lots are offered under the Auctioneers’ MarginScheme. In these circumstances no VAT will be added to the Buyer’spremium.

iii. Daggered Lots

Lots which are Daggered (†) in the catalogue are subject to VAT at 20%on both the Hammer Price and the Buyer’s Premium.

iv. Imported and Omega Lots

Lots which are marked (x) in the catalogue are subject to VAT at 5% onthe Hammer price plus 20% on the Buyer’s premium. Lots which bear theOmega symbol (Ω) are subject to VAT at 20% on the Hammer Price andon the Buyer’s Premium. This VAT is payable on items imported fromoutside the EU. In these cases we have used a temporary importationprocedure, which in effect means that the point of importation is deferreduntil the Lot has been sold. At this point the Buyer is treated as theimporter and is liable to pay the import VAT due. We will collect the VATfrom you and pay it to HM Customs and Excise on your behalf.

v. Investment Gold Lots

Lots marked (g) in the catalogue are exempt from VAT on the HammerPrice and are subject to VAT at 20% on the Buyer’s Premium. A refund ofVAT charged on the Buyer’s Premium can also be made on receipt of proofof business as a collectibles dealer outside of the EU.
