OF  A 


COLLECTION  OF  COINS  AND  MEDALS, 


Gathered  from  half  a dozen  worthless  Collections, 

NOW  THE  PROPERTY  OF  GOINTOEM  STRONG,  ESQ,. 

TO  BE  SOLD  TITTS  DAY. 

j5^“Smokcd  glass  will  be  provided  for  those  who  wish  to  examine  the  coins. 

1 —  English  Penny,*  very  plain.  The  inscription,  like 

England’s  honor,  is  nearly  obliterated. 

2 —  Kossuth  Mkdalet,  around  a hole.  Bust  facing 

left,  and  wearing  an  expression  a la  Mose,  when  he 
said,  “Why  don’t  yer  come  along  ? ” 

«‘3 — Kendall’s  Dinner  Check.  Very  good.  Probably 
purloined  by  some  chap  who  “stepped  out"  without 
paying  for  his  fish  balls. 

1 — Spanish  Quarter,  struck  in  pure  hud.  Brought 
three  cents  at  a recent  sale. 


9 


5 —  English  Farthing,  1838.  Obverse,  bust  of  Queen 

Victoria,  whose  hair  looks  as  if  dressed  with 
‘■Spalding’s  Prepared  Glue." 

6 —  One  Heller,  remarkably  poor.  Is  not  a coin  of  the 

realm  of  -left'  Davis. 

7 —  Two  Kohpeks,  in  fair  condition.  Obverse,  a double- 

headed eagle,  holding  a ten-pin  ball  in  one  claw 
and  a toasting-fork  in  the  other. 

8 —  Spanish  Coin  of  Isabel  II.  In  very  good  condition, 

except  ’Bel's  nose,  which  looks  like  a premium 
beet. 

9 —  Spanish  Coin  of  Ferdinand  VII.,  in  fair  condition. — 

Ferd’s  face,  as  depicted  on  this  coin,  suggests  the 
thought  that  he  may  have  just  escaped  from  a prize 
ring. 

10 —  French  Coin  of  Napoleon  ITT.,  in  very  fine  condition, 

— much  better,  indeed,  than  the  character  of  the 
man  whose  effigy  it  bears. 

11 —  Ferrotype  Medalet  of  Lincoln  and  Hamlin.  This 

medalet  shows  conclusively  that  though  Messrs.  L. 
N 11.  are  of  the  same  political  faith,  they  are  still 
on  opposite  sides. 


12 —  Another  Russian  Coin.  Precisely  the  same  as  Xo.  7, 

except  that  it  is  much  worse. 

13 —  Spanish  Ninepence,  1801.  Pure  silver  outside. 

14 —  Part  of  a Military  Button,  supposed  to  have  been  in 

the  “Concord  Fight.”  Very  “unique.” 

1-5 — Willard’s  Shop  Card.  Obverse,  a Comb.  This 
coin  probably  recently  belonged  to  a dentist,  for 
the  comb  has  very  fine  teeth,  which  may  prove 
suggestive  to  the  purchaser. 

10 — Three-Cent  Piece,  not  found  in  Roxbury.  If  any  one 
is  foolish  enough  to  bid  five  dollars  for  this  coin,  it 
will  be  knocked  oft'  to  him  immediately.
