This coin is part of the Sussex collection, a carefully put together cabinet with emphasis on quality rather than quantity. The collector sourced his coins from reputable dealers and metal detectorists during the late 1990’s through to his last purchases in 2008. The collection consists of Primary, Continental, Secondary and Northumbrian coins. These coins have been off the market for 15 years and are sure to sell quickly given their overall high grade.
