Durch die Teilnahme an der Auktion werden die folgenden Bedingungen anerkannt:
1. Die Versteigerung erfolgt in Schweizer Franken. Der Zuschlag erfolgt nach dreimaligem Aufruf an den Höchstbietenden, dessen Gebot vom Auktionator (für elektronische (online) Auktionen: virtueller Auktionator) anerkannt wurde, und verpflichtet zur Annahme. Der Ausruf erfolgt in der Regel bei 80% des Schätzpreises, sofern nicht höhere Angebote vorliegen. Schriftliche Gebote haben Vorrang gegenüber telefonischen oder elektronischen Geboten. Jeder Ersteigerer verpflichtet sich persönlich für die durch ihn getätigten Käufe. Er kann nicht nachträglich geltend machen, für Rechnung Dritter gehandelt zu haben.
2. Telefonische oder schriftliche Bietaufträge (auch per E-Mail oder Fax) von nichtanwesenden Interessenten werden bis 24 Stunden vor Auktionsbeginn entgegengenommen. Elektronische Angebote über die Onlineplattform werden bis zum Zeitpunkt des Beginns der elektronischen Auktion angenommen. Sie sind unwiderruflich und verbindlich. Telefonische Bieter sind damit einverstanden, dass das Gespräch aufgezeichnet werden kann. Das Auktionshaus übernimmt keinerlei Haftung für schriftliche, elektronische und telefonische Bietaufträge.
3. Bieter werden gebeten, sich vor der Auktion zu legitimieren und anschliessend registrieren zu lassen. Das Auktionshaus kann eine Bankreferenz und/oder Sicherheiten verlangen. Es steht im Ermessen des Auktionshauses, eine Person nicht an der Auktion teilnehmen zu lassen.
4. Es steht dem Versteigerer nach seinem Ermessen frei, ein Gebot heraufzusetzen oder ohne Angabe von Gründen abzulehnen. Der Versteigerer behält sich ferner das Recht vor, Lose zu vereinigen, zu trennen, ausserhalb der Reihenfolge anzubieten oder wegzulassen bzw. von der Auktion zurückzuziehen.
5. Auf dem Zuschlagspreis ist ein Aufgeld (Provision) von 22,5% zu entrichten. Internet Live Bieter entrichten ein zusätzliches Aufgeld von 1% auf den Zuschlagspreis. Die schweizerische Mehrwertsteuer von 8,1% wird auf den Endpreis (Zuschlagspreis plus alle weiteren vom Auktionshaus dem Käufer in Rechnung gestellte Beträge) erhoben. Goldmünzen (AV) sind von der MwSt. befreit. Bei Ausfuhr des ersteigerten Objekts ins Ausland wird dem Käufer die MwSt. zurückerstattet, wenn er eine rechtsgültige Ausfuhrdeklaration des schweizerischen Zolls beibringt.
6. Der Gesamtpreis wird mit erfolgtem Zuschlag zur Zahlung fällig und ist vor der Aushändigung des Objekts zu bezahlen, ausser es sei vor der Auktion eine andere schriftliche Abmachung getroffen worden. Für verspätete Zahlungen wird ein Verzugszins von 1% pro Monat in Rechnung gestellt. Das Eigentum geht erst mit der vollständigen Bezahlung auf den Käufer über. In der Regel liefert NAC das ersteigerte Objekt nicht vor der Bezahlung an den Käufer aus. Eine allfällige frühere Auslieferung bewirkt ausdrücklich keinen Eigentumsübergang und ändert nichts an der Zahlungsverpflichtung des Käufers.
Hat der Käufer nicht sofort und auch nicht innert fünf Tagen ab Erhalt einer eingeschriebenen schriftlichen Mahnung bezahlt, so ist NAC ohne weiteres und ohne weitere Anzeige berechtigt, vom Verkauf zurückzutreten.
7. Versand und Versicherung erfolgen auf Kosten und Risiko des Käufers (Ersteigerers). Im Ausland verrechnete Gebühren und Steuern gehen zulasten des Käufers (Ersteigerers). Diesem obliegt es, sich über ausländische Zoll- und Devisenvorschriften zu informieren. Das Auktionshaus übernimmt keine Haftung für allfällige Zuwiderhandlungen gegen solche Vorschriften.
8. Der Käufer verpflichtet sich, die erworbenen Waren nicht in Länder oder Gebiete zu exportieren, die wirtschaftlichen Sanktionen, Embargos oder anderen Handelsbeschränkungen unterliegen, die von der Schweizerischen Eidgenossenschaft verhängt wurden. Darüber hinaus verpflichtet sich der Käufer, die erworbenen Waren nicht an Personen oder Einrichtungen zu übertragen oder ihnen zur Verfügung zu stellen, die von Sanktionen der Schweizerischen Eidgenossenschaft betroffen sind, und alle aktuellen Schweizer Vorschriften bezüglich Export und Sanktionen einzuhalten.
9. Alle Angaben im Katalog wurden nach bestem Wissen und Gewissen zusammengestellt. Erweist sich ein Objekt nach dem Auktionsverkauf als Fälschung, so wird NAC den Verkauf namens des Einlieferers rückgängig machen und dem Käufer (Ersteigerer) den Kaufpreis (inkl. MWST) zurückerstatten. Der Käufer (Ersteigerer) kann eine solche Rückabwicklung ab dem Tag des Zuschlages für einen Zeitraum von zwei Jahren verlangen, sofern er den Mangel nach Entdeckung desselben mit eingeschriebenem Brief innert einer Frist von 5 Tagen gerügt hat.
10. Die zur Versteigerung gelangenden Objekte werden für Rechnung Dritter versteigert oder sind Eigentum des Auktionshauses. Der Käufer (Ersteigerer) hat keinen Anspruch auf Bekanntgabe des Einlieferers und ist damit einverstanden, dass das Auktionshaus auch von diesem eine Provision erhält.

Massgebend ist die deutsche Fassung dieser Auktionsbedingungen.
13. Die Auktion findet unter Mitwirkung des Stadtammannamtes Zürich 1 statt. Jede Haftung der mitwirkenden Behörde, des Stadtammanns, der Gemeinde oder des Staates für Handlungen des Auktionators entfällt.

Erfüllungsort ist der Sitz des Auktionshauses in 8001 Zürich, und ausschliesslicher Gerichtsstand ist Zürich.
The following terms and conditions are accepted by all persons participating in the auction:
1. Auction bidding is conducted in Swiss Francs. The highest bidder who has been acknowledged by the auctioneer when the hammer falls after the third call, has legally bought the lot (for e-auctions there will be a virtual auctioneer). Bidding usually begins at 80% of the estimate, provided no higher offers have been submitted. Written bids have priority over telephone and electronic bids. The successful bidder has committed himself personally to the purchases made. He cannot claim to have acted on behalf of a third party.
2. Absentee bidders can send bids electronically until the start of the sale. Bidders wishing to send a written bid by email, fax or participate by telephone must send their bids no later than 24 hours before the start of the auction. All bids are final and binding. Telephone bidders must agree that calls may be recorded. The auction house does not take responsibility for bidding mandates made by telephone, electronically or in writing.
3. Bidders must show proof of identification before the auction, and subsequently register. The Auction House may require a bank reference and/or guarantee. The Auction House reserves the right to deny a person from participating in the auction.
4. The auctioneer may raise or reject a bid without giving a reason. Furthermore, they have the right to combine, separate, and offer catalogue lots in a different order, as well as omit or withdraw them from the auction.
5. A commission of 22.5% will be levied on the hammer price - bidders using our Live Internet facilities pay an additional charge of 1%. The Swiss value added tax (VAT) of 8.1% is payable on the final price (hammer price, plus buyer’s commission and any other amounts chargeable by the Auction House to the buyer). Gold coins (AV) are exempt from VAT. If the purchases are exported, then the VAT will be refunded on production of a legally valid original export declaration issued by Swiss Customs.
6. Payment in Swiss Francs is due immediately upon adjudication of the lot and has to be paid with the release of the object to the Buyer, unless otherwise agreed in writing before the sale. Late payments will be subject to a monthly default interest of 1%. The ownership of a lot will not pass to the Buyer until NAC has received full payment on their account. NAC will generally not release a lot to a Buyer before payment. Earlier release of the lot does explicitly not affect its title nor the Buyer’s obligation to pay.
If the Buyer has failed to make immediate payment or within 5 days after receipt of a registered, written reminder, NAC may in its sole discretion cancel the sale of the lot.
7. Shipping and insurance are at the buyer’s (successful bidder’s) cost and risk. Any fees and charges payable abroad are borne by the buyer (successful bidder) who is responsible for acquiring the necessary information on any applicable customs and foreign exchange regulations. The Auction House accepts no liability for any contraventions of such regulations.
8. The Buyer undertakes not to export the purchased goods to countries or territories subject to economic sanctions, embargoes, or other trade restrictions imposed by the Swiss Confederation. Furthermore, the Buyer undertakes not to transfer or make available the purchased goods to individuals or entities that are subject to sanctions imposed by the Swiss Confederation, and to comply with all current Swiss regulations regarding export and sanctions.
9. All identifications and descriptions of the items sold in this catalogue are statements of opinion and were made in good faith. Should an item sold later be found to be a fake, NAC shall cancel the sale made on behalf of the consignor and refund the sale’s price (including VAT as applicable) to the buyer. The buyer is entitled to claim such a refund within a period of two years from the date of the auction, provided that they have notified NAC of the defect by registered letter within 5 days from its detection.
10. The objects which come under the hammer are auctioned on behalf of a third party or are property of the Auction House. The buyer (successful bidder) has no entitlement to have the identity of the consignor disclosed to them and acknowledges that the Auction House might receive a commission from the consignor for the sale.
11. NAC reserves the right to use photographs and other representations of objects sold at auction, for promotional purposes, in its own publications and on its website.
12. The above conditions are a component of each individual contract of sale concluded at the auction. Alterations must be made in writing in order to be valid. If any parts of these Terms and Conditions should be no longer or not fully be in conformity with the valid legal situation, this shall not affect the content and validity of the remaining parts. The above-mentioned conditions are written in German, French, Italian and English; the only valid text is the German one.
13. The auction takes place under the supervision of officials of the city of Zurich (Stadtammannamt Zurich
1). Any liability of the cooperating authority, the municipality or the state for acts of the auctioneer is waived. The contractual relationship between parties is subject in all facets to Swiss law. Place of performance is the registered office of the Auction House in 8001 Zurich, and the exclusive court of jurisdiction is Zurich.
de la vente aux enchères
Du fait de la participation à la vente aux enchères, les conditions suivantes sont réputées être acceptées :
1. Les enchères sont effectuées en Francs Suisses. L’adjudication est réalisée après trois appels consécutifs du plus offrant dont l’offre a été acceptée par le commissaire-priseur et qui constitue une obligation (pour les ventes aux enchères électroniques il y aura le commissaire-priseur virtuel). La mise à prix est effectuée en règle générale à 80 %, dans la mesure où il n’y a pas d’offres disponibles et plus élevées. Les offres formulées par écrit sont prioritaires sur les offres téléphoniques ou électroniques. Chaque enchérisseur s’engage personnellement en ce qui concerne les acquisitions réalisées par ses soins. Il ne peut pas faire valoir le fait d’avoir agi pour le compte d’une tierce personne.
2. Les demandes d’enchères par téléphone ou par écrit (également par moyen électronique) pour les personnes intéressées et non présentes (ou plutôt en ligne pour les ventes aux enchères électroniques) doivent être réceptionnées jusqu’à 24 heures avant le début de la vente aux enchères. Toutes les offres sont finales et contraignantes. Les enchérisseurs par téléphone acceptent que la communication téléphonique puisse être enregistrée. La salle des ventes n’assume aucune responsabilité quant aux enchères effectuées par téléphone, électronique ou par écrit.
3. Les enchérisseurs sont priés de se légitimer avant la vente aux enchères et de se faire enregistrer à l’issue de la vente. La salle des ventes peut exiger une référence bancaire et/ou une garantie. La salle des ventes a le droit de ne pas laisser une personne participer à la vente aux enchères.
4. L’enchérisseur peut, à sa guise, surenchérir une offre ou bien la décliner sans indication de motifs. L’enchérisseur se réserve en outre le droit d’associer des lots, de les séparer, de faire des offres en dehors de l’ordre prévu ou de les laisser de côté, voire de se retirer de la vente aux enchères.
5. Une commission de 22,5% est perçue sur le prix d’adjudication. Les acquéreurs qui souhaitent participer aux enchères en ligne avec nos facilités Live Internet paieront un frais supplémentaire de 1%. La taxe à la valeur ajoutée suisse d’un montant de 8,1 % sera perçue sur le prix définitif (prix d’adjudication plus supplément et sur tous les autres montants facturés à l’acquéreur par la salle des ventes). Les pièces de monnaie en or (AV) sont dispensées de la TVA.
En cas d’exportation de l’objet adjugé vers l’étranger, l’acquéreur se voit restituer la TVA lorsqu’il est en mesure de présenter une déclaration d’exportation réglementaire, en bonne et due forme, des autorités douanières suisses.
6. Le prix total en francs suisses est exigible immédiatement après adjudication et doit être acquitté avant la remise de l’objet adjugé sauf si un autre accord écrit a été conclu avant la vente aux enchères. Pour les paiements effectués ultérieurement un intérêt moratoire de 1% par mois sera facturé. La transmission de la propriété à l’acquéreur a lieu seulement à paiement intégral. En général, NAC ne remets pas l’objet adjugé à l’acquéreur avant paiement. Une éventuelle livraison antérieure n’entraîne expressément aucun transfert de propriété et ne modifie en rien l’obligation de paiement de l’acheteur.
En cas que l’acquéreur n’a pas payé simultanément et non plus entre les cinq jours après réception d’un avertissement sous pli recommandé, NAC est en droit de se départir du contrat sans autre formalité et sans avis ultérieur.
7. Les frais d’envoi et d’assurance sont à charge et au risque de l’acquéreur (enchérisseur). Les taxes ou les impôts facturés à l’étranger sont à la charge de l’acquéreur (enchérisseur). Il lui incombe de s’informer au sujet des directives étrangères en matière de douane et de devises. La salle des ventes décline toute responsabilité pour les éventuelles infractions à l’encontre de ces directives.
8. L’Acheteur s’engage à ne pas exporter les biens achetés vers des pays ou territoires soumis à des sanctions économiques, des embargos ou d’autres restrictions commerciales imposées par la Confédération suisse. En outre, l’Acheteur s’engage à ne pas transférer ou mettre à disposition les biens achetés à des individus ou entités faisant l’objet de sanctions imposées par la Confédération suisse, et à respecter toutes les réglementations suisses en vigueur en matière d’exportation et de sanctions.
9. Toutes les indications mentionnées dans le catalogue sont rassemblées en toute conscience et en toute bonne foi. S’il s’avérait après la vente qu’un objet n’était pas authentique, NAC annulerait la vente faite de la part du consignataire et rembourserait le prix de vente (y compris toute TVA appliquée) à l’acheteur. L’acheteur a droit à demander un tel remboursement entre une période de 2 ans à partir de la date de la vente aux enchères, pourvu qu’il ait averti NAC du défaut par lettre recommandée dans un délai de 5 jours depuis sa détection.
10. Les objets mis aux enchères le sont pour le compte de tierces personnes ou bien sont la propriété de la salle des ventes. L’acquéreur (enchérisseur) n’a aucun droit d’obtenir communication du nom de la personne qui met en vente et se déclare en accord avec le fait que la salle des ventes perçoive une provision de cette dernière.
11. NAC se réserve le droit d’utiliser les photographes et d’autres représentations des objets vendus lors de ses ventes aux enchères à des fins promotionnelles, dans ses propres publications et sur son site Internet
12. Les présentes conditions font partie intégrante de tout contrat de vente conclu dans le cadre de la vente aux enchères. Les modifications ne sont valables que par écrit. Le fait que des parties des présentes conditions de vente aux enchères venaient à ne plus correspondre, ou du moins plus intégralement, à la situation juridique en vigueur, n’affecte en rien les autres parties, ni dans leur contenu, ni dans leur validité. La version en langue allemande constitue la référence des présentes conditions de vente aux enchères. 13. La vente se déroule sous la supervision des fonctionnaires de la ville de Zurich (Stadtammannamt Zurich 1). L’autorité coopérante, la municipalité et l’État sont exonérés de toute responsabilité pour les actes du commissaire-priseur. La relation contractuelle entre les parties en cause est soumise, dans toutes ses composantes, au droit Suisse. La compétence juridique est fixée au siège de la salle des ventes à 8001 Zurich, et le for juridique exclusif est Zurich.
La partecipazione all’asta comporta l’accettazione delle seguenti condizioni:
1. La valuta in cui viene condotta l’asta è il Franco Svizzero. L’aggiudicazione al miglior offerente, individuato dal banditore, avviene dopo la terza chiamata e comporta per l’aggiudicatario l’acquisto con tutti i relativi obblighi di legge. Le offerte partono generalmente dall’ 80% del prezzo di stima a meno che una o più offerte d’importo maggiore siano state presentate. Le offerte scritte hanno la precedenza sulle offerte telefoniche o elettroniche. Il partecipante all’asta è personalmente responsabile per l’acquisto effettuato e non può pretendere di avere agito per conto di terzi.
2. I partecipanti all’asta non presenti in sala possono presentare offerte telefonicamente, in forma scritta, o per via elettronica fino a 24 ore prima dell’inizio dell’asta. Ogni offerta è finale e vincolante. Coloro che trasmettono la propria offerta telefonicamente, prestano il proprio consenso all’eventuale registrazione della telefonata. La casa d’asta non si assume alcun tipo di responsabilità per le offerte trasmesse in forma scritta, elettronica o telefonica.
3. Per concorrere all’asta, i partecipanti dovranno esibire un documento d’identità e registrarsi. La casa d’asta si riserva il diritto di richiedere referenze bancarie o un deposito cauzionale per permettere la partecipazione all’asta. La casa d’asta si riserva inoltre il diritto di rifiutare la partecipazione all’asta di un soggetto.
4. Il banditore d’asta ha la facoltà di aumentare o rifiutare un’offerta secondo la propria discrezionalità e senza necessità di fornire una motivazione. Il banditore si riserva inoltre il diritto di unire, separare, cambiare la sequenza prevista o di eliminare e/o ritirare dall’asta determinati lotti.
5. Al prezzo d’aggiudicazione va aggiunta una commissione del 22,5%. Gli offerenti che parteciperanno all’asta ‘live’ attraverso internet pagheranno un costo supplementare dell’1%. L’imposta svizzera sul valore aggiunto, pari attualmente al 8,1%, viene applicata sul prezzo finale (prezzo d’aggiudicazione più commissione ed ogni altro importo imputabile al compratore dalla casa d’aste). Le monete in oro (AV) sono esonerate dal pagamento dell’IVA.
In caso d’esportazione dell’oggetto acquistato all’asta verso un paese estero, il compratore ha diritto al rimborso dell’IVA a seguito di consegna di una valida dichiarazione d’esportazione dell’ufficio doganale della Confederazione Elvetica.
6. Il pagamento del prezzo totale è dovuto al momento dell’accettazione dell’offerta e deve essere effettuato prima della consegna dell’oggetto, se non diversamente concordato per iscritto prima dell’asta. I pagamenti in ritardo saranno soggetti a un interesse dell’1% al mese. La proprietà non passerà all’acquirente fino al completo pagamento. Di norma, la NAC non consegnerà l’oggetto d’asta all’acquirente prima del pagamento. Una consegna anticipata non comporta espressamente un trasferimento di proprietà e non modifica l’obbligo di pagamento dell’acquirente. Se il compratore non dovesse effettuare il pagamento subito o entro 5 giorni dalla ricezione di una raccomandata scritta da NAC come avviso di mancato pagamento, la NAC si riserverà la facoltà di cancellare la vendita di tale lotto.
7. I costi ed il rischio della spedizione sono a carico dell’acquirente. Qualunque imposta e contributo legalmente dovuto nel paese d’esportazione è a carico dell’acquirente (compratore in sede d’asta) il quale è responsabile della conoscenza di norme vigenti in materia doganale e di valuta. La casa d’asta non si assume alcuna responsabilità nell’eventuale violazione di tali prescrizioni.
8. L’Acquirente si impegna a non esportare i beni acquistati verso Paesi o territori soggetti a sanzioni economiche, embarghi o altre restrizioni commerciali imposte dalla Confederazione Svizzera. Inoltre, l’Acquirente si impegna a non trasferire o mettere a disposizione i beni acquistati a individui o entità che sono oggetto di sanzioni imposte dalla Confederazione Svizzera, e a rispettare tutte le normative vigenti in Svizzera in materia di esportazione e sanzioni.
9. Le indicazioni e descrizioni contenute nel catalogo sono opinioni soggettive ed espresse in buona fede. Nel caso in cui un oggetto venisse ritenuto falso, NAC annullerà la vendita condotta per conto del consegnatario e rimborserà all’acquirente il prezzo di vendita (compreso di IVA, se applicata). L’acquirente ha diritto di richiedere tale rimborso entro un periodo di due anni a partire dalla data della vendita all’asta, a condizione che abbia avvisato NAC del difetto tramite lettera raccomandata entro cinque giorni dalla sua scoperta.
10. Gli oggetti offerti vengono messi all’asta per conto di terzi o sono di proprietà della casa d’asta. L’acquirente (compratore in sede d’asta) non ha il diritto di conoscere l’identità del consegnatario dell’oggetto e prende atto che alla casa d’asta potrebbe venir corrisposta dal consegnatario una commissione per la vendita.
11. NAC si riserva il diritto di usare fotografie e altre ripresentazioni di oggetti venduti durante l’asta, nelle proprie pubblicazioni e sul proprio sito internet per motivi promozionali.
12. Le condizioni sopra menzionate costituiscono parte integrante di ciascun contratto individuale di vendita concluso nell’asta. Eventuali modifiche saranno ritenute valide solo se fatte in forma scritta. Nel caso in cui una parte delle presenti Condizioni di Vendita non dovesse essere più totalmente conforme alle vigenti disposizioni di legge, ciò non avrà effetto sulla validità delle parti restanti. L’unica versione di testo delle Condizioni di Vendita che ha valore legale è quella in lingua tedesca.
13. L’asta si svolge sotto la supervisione dei funzionari della città di Zurigo (Stadtammannamt Zurich 1). L’autorità cooperante, il comune e lo stato sono esonerati da qualsiasi responsabilità circa le azioni del banditore. Il rapporto contrattuale fra le parti è regolato in tutti i suoi aspetti dal diritto della Confederazione Elvetica. Il luogo d’adempimento è la sede della casa d’aste a Zurigo (8001). Il foro competente è esclusivamente quello di Zurigo.

Foreword Richard W.C. Kan
The pieces in this catalogue represent thirty-four years of collection of coins of the Classical and Hellenistic Periods covering the Peloponnese, Northern Greece, Thrace and the Aegean coast of modern day Turkey. They are all choice pieces seldom repeated in any category. Most of them were acquired from the CNG, Spink, Numismatica ARS Classica and Numismatica Genevensis covering the main centres in London, New York, Zürich and Geneva. I have spared no effort to acquire the best pieces which have frequently been quoted in popular reference books such as Dr. Carman Arnold-Biucchi’s “Alexander’s Coins and Alexander’s Image” page 30 devoting two-and-a-half pages on a silver decadrachm of “Poros”, which is the very coin in this auction, and Dr. Wolfgang Fischer-Bossert’s “the Athenian Decadrachm” page 45, item 25, which is another important coin in this auction. In addition, the three coins known as the “elephant series” forming the subject of Frank L. Holt’s book are included in this auction. There are also many other very rare or unique coins that deserve to find a new and good home.
The reason that I am disposing of these coins is that I only wish to retain my Archaic Coin Collection, currently being exhibited at the Museo Casa de la Moneda in Madrid until 21st June, 2026. As I have reached a certain age, I find it better to free my memory of some past records and concentrate on one or two specific areas only.
I have not been a casual collector in the past three decades, as reflected by the scope which does not cover Magna Graecia. I do hope that my passion and interest in the Classical and Hellenistic Periods would be transcended by serious fellow coin collectors to ensure the continuity of this most meaningful subject of collection.
Richard W.C. Kan
Foreword Arturo Russo
It is a great honour for Numismatica Ars Classica to present the Zhuyuetang Collection of Classical and Hellenistic Greek Coins.
This distinguished collection, assembled over the course of more than thirty years by Richard W.C. Kan, is simply extraordinary for a host of reasons. Firstly, because Richard is the first major collector of Greek coins in the Far East, thus becoming an inspiration for an entire generation of collectors in this geographical area which has seen a significant uptake in interest in only the last twenty years. Secondly, for his approach to collecting as he did not limit himself to owning the coins for his personal pleasure but instead sought to ensure that his collections were a means to promote numismatics. It is precisely in this spirit that over 20 years ago Richard organised a first exhibition of his collection in Hong Kong with a superb catalogue History Re-stored. Ancient Greek Coins from the Zhuyuetang Collection, edited by Andy Meadows. More recently, Richard has made his Archaic coins available to the Casa de la Moneda in Madrid for a beautiful exhibition When Coinage Was Born: Treasures from The Zhuyuetang Collection, which will be open until Summer 2026, with an academic catalogue curated by Ute Wartenberg and Wolfgang Fischer-Bossert.
Moreover, Richard has had the same approach with his other great passion, Chinese monochrome ceramics, of which he is certainly one of the greatest collectors and connoisseurs in the world, organising an outstanding exhibition Unblemished Colours at the Musée Guimet in Paris.
This auction, which represents only a part of Richard’s collection, comprises the Classical and Hellenistic component, an extraordinary array of exceedingly rare and historically important coins. As the reader will deduce, the driving force behind Richard's interest in coins was his passion for history, as is so often the case for coin collectors, and it was this passion that drove him to purchase a number of historically important specimens like the Trishekel of Carthago Nova (lot 1); not one but two decadrachms of Alexander the Great (lots 31 and 34) along with the decadrachm of Athens (lot 93); the stater of Quinctius Flamininus (lot 49); two extremely rare tetradrachms minted at Sparta (lot 106-107), and the tetradrachm of Mausolus minted at Mylasa (lot 139). Finally, it would be impossible not to mention the stater of Nectanebo (lot 164).
By no means less important are the coins that Richard acquired to satisfy his innate taste for beauty including the spectacular tetradrachm of Lysimachus (lot 75), perhaps the best of its type to have ever appeared on the numismatic market; the tetradrachm of Delphi of the Amphictyonic league (lot 88); a lovely stater of Olympia (lot 103); the drachm of Argos formerly belonging to the Gillet collection (lot 109), and the extraordinary staters of Phaenus and Stymphalus (lots 112-113), arguably the two best specimens in private hands.
I would like to devote the final lines of this foreword to paying tribute to two colleagues who assisted Richard in building this remarkable collection: John Pett and Eric McFadden.
For over thirty years, John was responsible for the ancient coin department at Spink & Son during which time he mentored an entire generation of European numismatists who, after starting their career under his careful guidance, progressed in their own careers in leading numismatic firms. Indeed, John was the first numismatist to make Richard’s acquaintance, and it was through him that I met Richard over 15 years ago.
Eric McFadden is undoubtedly one of the very best coin dealers. During my career, I have done nothing but admire his integrity, numismatic excellence and expertise in research. Despite us being competitors, this was never to the detriment of our mutual respect. Both Eric and Victor England made a perfect duo with Eric being extremely interested in some aspects of the business and Victor in others, thus complementing each other perfectly.
Undoubtedly, the credit for the beauty and importance of the collection belongs to Richard, though John and Eric, with their expert advice, aided him in achieving this magnificent result
Enough words for now, I will leave the coins to speak.
Happy reading!
