Coins, Medals & Militaria

Lawrences present their Autumn Militaria, Medals & Coins Auction, a remarkable three-day event featuring over two thousand lots. The sale perfectly reflects the auction house’s reputation for “collections of collections,” bringing together extensive groups of military artefacts, rare medals, historic weapons, and fine coins.

Among the highlights is a Chinese Gold Sycee Ingot, which is something rather special. Gold has been much in the headlines recently, and there is plenty of interesting gold to choose from in the auction, but few pieces of ‘sunken treasure’ are as exciting as the gold bar from the Geldermalsen. These bars are incredibly rare survivors, and to hold one and wonder at its manufacture, history, and journey is quite something.

The sale also includes one of the largest assortments of cap badges ever offered by Lawrences, complemented by an impressive selection of enamel badges and military medals. Collectors will also discover two exceptional silver swords from a distinguished private collection, as well as notable numismatic treasures including a Victorian Gothic Crown.
