This month is Smalls Auctions 30th Sale which offers an amazing selection of Australian Pre-decimal coins including nine coins that stand out as the single or equal finest known. There are a further fourteen coins that rank in the top two grades for the dates and denominations including a few that we consider to be better than some of the coins that rank above them.

Also, on offer is a quality selection of Ancient gold coins including six Aurei of the Roman Empire as well as a Pentadrachm of Ptolemy II, an Octodrachm of Ptolemy III, a Sasanian Dinar of Vahran II and a Zeugitania Gold Stater of Carthage.

Collectors of World coins looking for the next big thing would be wise to focus on the Thailand 1876-1900 Gold 1/8 Baht in NGC MS64. This is a high grade for this rarity in a series that has doubled in the past year following the death of their beloved King Bhumibol Adulyadej.

As usual there is a nice selection of jewellery on offer and for the collectors of fine silver there is a matching pair of highly collectable silver Table Spoons by famous woman silversmith 'Hester Bateman' stamped London, 1777.

Collectors of modern Australian issues should be well catered for with another interesting selection of commemorative issues and year sets. The Banknote selection concentrates on high-grade examples the rapidly disappearing paper decimal issues.

The sale concludes with vintage Movie House ‘Lobby cards’ for some of the most iconic films of the 1950s, 60s & 70s.
