57 JAPAN. MANEN ERA, 1860-62.
AV OBAN (10 RYO),
Oval with horizontal indentations and patterned security
edge; black ink calligraphy with four mon stamps. Three
vertical stamps and three moneyers' stamps lower left on
reverse. (c.112.8grams), 135mm x 80mm. Rare. The oban
is in well preserved condition showing small amounts of
ink loss and surface wear, a dark test mark on upper right
of reverse, also a small file mark on security edge c.13mm.
(one coin)
A similar example can be found in the catalogue of the
Japanese Coin Collection at the British Museum. The
founder of the Tokugawa Shogunate, Leyasu, established
a gold, silver and bronze denomination system that lasted
until the Meiji restoration ended the Shogunate's rule. The
largest denomination in this coinage system was the Oban
gold piece, which was typically used as a special reward or
a gift, rather than day to day transactions.
The piece on offer is from the Manen era, the final era
before the Meiji Restoration and after US Commodore
Matthew Perry helped to end Japan's isolationist policies
under the Shogunate. The design for this coin features the
Kiri crest of the office of the Prime Minister of Japan. The
symbol - or mon - is the paulownia flower, and is known
as the Princess Tree in Japan. An interesting feature of this
piece is its' security edge, which prevents any unscrupulous
individuals from shaving or filing the edge of the coin.
This rare coin highlights the following collection of
Japanese coins, which were amassed over the last twenty
or thirty years by a collector who has a particular interest
in Japanese coins, art and antiques. This particular piece
was purchased from a private estate sale in the 1990's by
the present vendor and it is believed not to have exchanged
hands since 1928.

On the establishment of the Moscow Foundling House
on September 1st, 1763, struck in gold, by T. IVANOV/
J.G.WAECHNER.
Obverse: By the Grace of God Catherine II, Empress
and Autocrat of all Russia. Crowned and mantled bust
of Catherine II right: above the portrait signature of
engraver: TIMOFEY IVANOB.

This medal with others are purported to have been given
to Mrs Haynes granddaughter J. Chamberlain, who was a
librarian to George III by Catherine II Empress of Russia,
as she (Chamberlain) obtained for the Empress certain
pictures in Windsor Castle.
J. Chamberlain was the third great grandmother of H.C.C
Batten who was given the medals in 1906.
IVANOVICH BETSKOJ was a Russian school reformer
who served as Catherine the Great's advisor on
education, and President of the Imperial Academy of the
Arts for thirty years (1764-94). He established Russia's
first unified system of public education and documented
the above medal:
'On the obverse side of the medal was depicted a half
length portrait of Catherine the Great, while on the
reverse we can see the personification of the Christian
symbol of faith (the creed) under the veil, who is
holding a cross in her right hand. The Faith is leaning
on the pedestal of the church building and commands
the humanity presented as a young woman. To pick up
the child and to bring it to the charity based Sovereign
House (Moscow Foundling Home) Above the visible
words of the Saviour, 'Ye Shall Live Also' St.John14:19,
on the bottom... is the line 'September, 1st Day, in 1763.
Catherine the Great was presented with five golden, two
silver and six bronze medals, and her son Pavel Petrovich
received one of each kind.'
The medal on offer is believed to be one of the finest
examples known and has minimal wear only visible on

275 RUSSIA, COMMEMORATIVE MEDAL.
Transportation of the granite monolith for the monument
to Peter I, 1770, by J.C.G. Jaeger.
Obverse: Laureate bust of Catherine II left, mantled and
wearing star and ribbon: above the portrait signature of
engraver J.C.G. Jaegar.
Reverse: A panoramic view of the transport of the

This medal with others are purported to have been given
to Mrs Haynes granddaughter J. Chamberlain, who was a
librarian to George III by Catherine II Empress of Russia,
as she (Chamberlain) obtained for the Empress certain
pictures in Windsor Castle.
J. Chamberlain was the third great grandmother of H.C.C
Batten who was given the medals in 1906.
The reverse of this medal is based on an engraving by
I.F.Schley of the drawings by Y.M.Felten. The block of
granite used as a pedestal for the monument was called
'The Thunder Stone', and was considered to be the
largest stone ever moved by man. Its weight was
calculated at 15,000 tonne, it was moved 6km overland to
the Gulf of Finland and then by barge to St. Petersburg.
The project was considered a historic engineering feat,
all work was done by men, no animals or machines were
used in the transport of the stone. The engineer in charge
was a Greek serving as a Leftenant Colonel in the Russian
Army, Marinos Carburis. He was the first Greek to hold a
diploma in engineering.
The medal is believed to be one of the finest of the few
known and has minimal wear appearing in its original
state with proof-like fields and finely engraved frosted
relief. The medal is being offered contained in what
appears to be its original turned wood box.

During the Campaign of Burma, Flight Lt. Paige flew

down after battling over the Arakan Yomas. The aircraft

was discharged in 1951 after displaying great courage and
a fine example to his men.
Legg was awarded the George Medal in 1941 for his
heroic actions during an incident which saw several
servicemen killed and others wounded. Somewhere
in Britain a group of infantry accidentally entered
a minefield intended to trap invaders. Some mines
exploded and all around the ground was thickly sown
with other unexploded mines. In the middle of the field
lay a wounded man and several dead. With complete
disregard to their own safety Sergeant Major Legg and a
fellow Lance Sergeant Hardy (also awarded the George
medal), and other servicemen displayed exceptional
courage in recovering bodies from the danger area of the
minefield.
A newspaper cutting included within the lot from the
1940's regarding the event reads: They both carried out
their task with extreme coolness and courage and their
bearing throughout was of the highest order. In a letter
written to Sergeant Major Legg dated 1941 congratulating
him on the George medal award, a paragraph in the letter
reads: It will be sometime before I forget the sight that
day!

the King's Regiment, Liverpool. A pair of Queen's and

Defence of Ladysmith, Orange Free State, Trans Vaal,
South Africa, 1901 and 1902. This collection of medals,
dress uniform, court sword and engraved cigar box are
included with a letter written by Second Lieutenant
Batten during the defence of Ladysmith, on December
1st 1899.
The letter, written in pencil, reads:
My Dear Grandpa, I am writing this to you during the
siege of Ladysmith, or rather, I trust, the last few days of
the siege. We have been shut up here since the 2nd of
Nov, and it has been a very momentous affair, as since
that date we have been completely cut off from the rest
of the world, so have no papers or letters. A few runners
have I believed managed to get through the Boer lines
with dispatches at odd times. We are now expecting daily
to be relieved... I expect soon to hear of a big fight outside
here and then relief. To describe the siege, it is enough to
say that one day is exactly the same as another. We get up
at three thirty am, parade at four am, stand about ready
to march off to assist attack ‘til daylight has fairly dawned.
The rest of the day we build and repair our fortifications...
and lie under shields constructed against
the enemy shells. Our battalion find three companies for
outpost duty when we remain shut up in trenches for five
days until relieved. Am on outpost duty now. Sometimes
we often have to work at night as it is pretty safe from
shelling. Then lately we have been chiefly suffering from
having nothing to do all day, as the walls are all built so
we lie in the trenches and chase away the flies which are
a regular plague here. I am glad to say I am fit and well.
Was under fire for the first time at the battle of Intintaymi.
Felt a bit shaky at first but soon got used to it. Boers have
been shelling the camp daily (except Sundays). Since
the beginning of the siege we have lost one Sergeant and
nine men. It is surprising how little damage their shells
have done considering the number of shells that have
been dropped. Grub and drink are getting scarce. Find
the heat terrific and it is not mid-summer yet. Will write
again better, but thought you would like to hear a word so
please excuse the scrawl. With best love to Uncle Henry
and Yourself, Your Affectionate Grandson, J. H. Strode
Batten.
The fascinating and historical letter is contained in the
original envelope with Yeovil postmark. The uniform and
hat contained in original tin trunks.
This fascinating collection of important military history
has been well preserved for generations.
