Struck weeks before Caesar’s death!
Sure to elevate any collection to a new level, this immensely rare silver denarius was one of the last coin types of iconic Roman ruler Julius Caesar, struck a matter of weeks before he was assassinated in March 44BC.
Struck in Rome in January and February of 44BC, the coin was issued under the authority of Marcus Mettius – a close ally of Julius Caesar, and a key player in the Gallic Wars. Upon the obverse of this crucial ‘lifetime issue’, we find a fine portrayal of the iconic Roman dictator, with Venus the Victorious depicted on the reverse.
A truly great Roman rarity in any condition, the Julius Caesar (M. Mettius) 44BC Silver Denarius seen here is graded Very Fine.
Mysterious Koson Gold!
Bearing a design based on a famous 54BC type of Brutus, one of Caesar’s assassins, this mysterious 1st century BC issue is thought to have been struck in the central European kingdom of Dacia under King Cotiso. Very scarce, and seldom offered by Downies over the years – act now!
victory at Actium!
A genuine artefact of one of history’s most pivotal military victories, this superb coin celebrates Octavian’s victory over Antony and Cleopatra at Actium – a victory that left Octavian the sole master of the Roman world. Superb portrait type!
Marc
– leader, lover, legend…
One of the most famous Augustus types, this sought after coin unites the portrait of the emperor with his ill-fated heirs, Caius & Lucius. Illustrative of Augustus’ dynastic ambitions, this key coin is scarce in near Extremely Fine.
A genuine coin of Marc Antony – ally of Caesar, lover of Cleopatra, foe of Octavian! An emergency wartime issue, the Legionary Denarius was struck to pay Antony’s armies in the war against Octavian, before Antony’s defeat at Actium in 31BC, and subsequent suicide.

Genuine coins of Julius Caesar!
A landmark opportunity, we are proud to present a selection of genuine coins from one of the most famous figures of global history – Julius Caesar.
Born into the ruling classes in 100BC, Caesar entered Roman politics in 73BC. Caesar’s political star rose quickly, and by c60BC, he formed the First Triumvirate with Crassus and Pompey. Although this unofficial alliance held firm for several years, Pompey and Caesar were increasingly drawn into conflict, leading to Caesar’s rebellion in 49BC.
Following victory in ‘Caesar’s Civil Wars’ (4945BC), Caesar was master of the Roman world. When he declared himself dictator for life, a group
of Senators plotted Caesar’s murder and, in March 44BC, he was stabbed to death. Rather than ‘save the Republic’, as they hoped, the conspirators set Rome on an inevitable path to autocratic empire. Caesar’s assassins also failed to sully the reputation of a man they saw as a power-hungry tyrant and an enemy of liberty.
A military genius, brilliant politician, clever populist and shrewd reformer, Caesar is considered one of the greatest Romans, and one of the most crucial figures in the course of recorded history. To own a coin of Julius Caesar is to reach one of the highest peaks in numismatics.
Rare Caesar & Antony Double Portrait type!
An important, highly desirable Roman rarity, this coin portrays two of the world’s most famous figures – Julius Caesar and Marc Antony.
When Caesar died in 44BC, Antony portrayed himself as his natural successor, rather than official heir, Octavian. Seeking to create a strong connection with Caesar, Antony had this coin struck by a mobile military mint in Gaul in 43BC during his conflict with Octavian. Uniting Antony and Caesar’s portraits, this richly symbolic type is extremely rare in superior grade.
Struck by a mobile military mint during Caesar’s Civil Wars, and depicting an elephant trampling a serpent, this famous Roman type is a rare relic of Caesar’s march to power.
Celebrating Caesar’s triumph in the 58-50BC Gallic Wars, and rare in premium grade, this coin was struck by a mobile mint during the Civil Wars between Caesar and the Pompeians.
Depicting Julius Caesar, with contemporary banker’s marks, this rare posthumous type gives you the chance to own a genuine portrait coin of one of the world’s most famous figures.
Issued by Q. Voconius Vitulus, and bearing Julius Caesar’s portrait on the obverse with contemporary banker’s marks, this excessively rare Roman type is graded near Very Fine.

Last of the 1817-1932 Sovereign Series!
One of the most crucial dates in one of the most important series in numismatic history, South Africa’s 1932SA Gold Sovereign was the last date of the 1817-1932 Sovereign Series!
The only Royal Mint branch to strike a sovereign dated 1932, this immensely desirable coin bears the portrait of George V and Pistrucci’s St George & the Dragon motif, with the SA mintmark below. Sought after in any condition, this key last issue date is a must-have in premium grade Extremely Fine to Uncirculated.

The fortune beneath the floorboards!
Why was a bundle of largely high-denomination notes stashed under the floorboards in a house in suburban Adelaide in the late 1920s? A mistrust of banks? The fear of future turmoil, sparked by the First World War? Proceeds of the odd sly wager? No one will ever know.
Roaring 20s rarity at a rare price
A key artefact of the Roaring 20s, as Australia recovered from WWI, the Kell/Collins £1 was issued for just one year – from April 1926 to April 1927. Printed in tiny numbers, even in comparison to other £1 issues of the era, this sought after note is scarce to rare across the grades, with only a tiny number remaining in existence.
With this crucial early Australian note missing from most collections, don’t miss the chance to add it to yours for $445 – $355 below catalogue value in Fine!
Issued for less than a year!
The successor to the note above, the 1927 Kell/ Heathershaw £1 was a similarly short-lived issue. Printed for less than a year, this 96-year-old note is naturally scarce to rare across the grades. An irresistible opportunity, secure the Kell/Heathershaw £1 for just $495 – $505 below catalogue value in Fine!
What we do know is that this hoard find represents your opportunity to secure some of Australia’s earliest notes – at prices to please all pockets! Such an opportunity must be grasped with both hands, as all early Australian banknotes are scarce to rare. Why is this so?

Apart from the fact that they were printed in tiny numbers for a small population, the rarity of pre-WWII notes is due to their composition. Unlike hard-wearing coins, paper notes had a dramatically short lifespan – some lasting only 12 months – before withdrawn and destroyed.
Rare WWI Fiver at just $895!
The last issue of Australia’s first £5 design type, bearing our second signature combination, the 1918 £5 Cerutty/ Collins is immensely historic and very rare – irrespective of the grade.

While stocks last, this early Australian predecimal WWI-era note is just $895 – a whopping $2,355 below catalogue value in Fine!
Outstanding value-for-money…
The last issue of Australia’s first £1 design type, and carrying the nation’s 2nd signature combination, the 1918 £1 Cerutty/Collins is tremendously historic, extremely rare and missing from most collections.
