ex Pridmore, Glendinings, 22 September 1981, lot 528
ex R J Ford, Spink Auction 79, 15 October 1990, lot 293
ex A L T McCammon collection, Baldwin's Auction 20, 11 October 1999, lot 193
One of my memories of the Pridmore sale is this coin and Dick Ford. When it came to expensive patterns or proofs, Dick usually got what he wanted without a great deal of difficulty. When this piece came up for sale he had one other collector, Mr. McCammon to contend with, who also really wanted this coin and the price was bid up well past its estimate and it sold for £2,600, quite a bit of money for a pattern in 1981
Estimate: £2000-3000
