Description
Smalls Auctions Sale 315 offers an exceptional selection of rare and historically significant items, headlined by two ultra-rare British Colonial gold coins: a 1902 S ‘Matt’ Proof Half Sovereign (mintage of just three) and a unique 1902 S ‘Brilliant’ Proof Sovereign, starting at $175,000 and $200,000 respectively. These coins are unparalleled in rarity and prestige, comparable to a recently sold 1901 P Proof pair that fetched over $525,000. The sale also features several mid-20th-century Aboriginal Transitional Boomerangs, including a remarkable example by Joe Timbery inscribed for the 1960 French Rugby League tour. Additional highlights include a strong lineup of PCGS-graded Australian Sixpences and a 1915 (L) Shilling PCGS MS64—one of the top five known. From numismatic treasures to cultural artifacts, this auction presents a unique opportunity for collectors to acquire items of extraordinary value, rarity, and historical depth. Don’t miss the chance to own a piece of history with Smalls Auctions.
