About BNTA

About Us The British Numismatic Association represents the interests of more than eighty firms located throughout the British Isles.
The Coin trade in Britain has come a long way since the British Numismatic Trade Association (BNTA) was founded 35 years ago, indeed this is true of numismatics worldwide, but the UK has certainly not lagged behind.

The Field

The whole field with which BNTA concerns itself has expanded marvellously. Thirty-five years ago there were three main areas – coins, commemorative medals and ODM (orders, decorations and medals), Now banknotes, share certificates and the like have added to the wealth of collecting interest, and it is increasingly common to find small antiquities, ancient cameos and gems (glyptics) being offered at coin fairs.

Early this morning we had four masked men break down our font door and lock myself and my wife in our bedroom. I broke out and tried to grapple with them but when they threatened to kill me I backed off.

They stole all my stock that i was taking to the Birmingham fair this morning.

Hello, my name is John Wilson from Kent Vintage Collectors LTD (Trading as Kent Coins).

Just a quick email to inform other dealers that we were burgled on 04 November, all of our stock was stolen and our premises was badly damaged.

I am reaching out to ask if you could keep an eye open for anyone offering our stolen stock for sale or to let me know if you are offered any of the items stolen, the list is too extensive to attach in its entirety but a brief run down is below:

Several thousand single coins, mainly bronze, nickel and silver in 2x2 clear plastic packets, each would be hand written with a stock code starting with SC (IE: SC12345), these include British & World Coins and range from Roman to modern circulating Decimal Issues.
Around 200 coins in capsules, mainly silver 1oz rounds and gold plated commonwealth coins and Westminster tokens etc, in clear front bags labelled with codes starting with OS
3kg of Bulk 50% Silver coins (1920-46) in 1KG bags, labelled as codes starting EB
Around 400 banknotes, again in clear front bags with codes starting BKN
A quantity of unlabelled and labelled stock, including an uncut sheet of 6 Kentfield £5 Banknotes (Serial: BH28001493 to BH36001493), 1 5oz Silver Britannia & 5oz Silver Canadian Maple Ingot, Royal Mint proof sets and coins & some stamp collections and stamp kiloware likely in clear plastic tubs or plastic boxes, some of these will be labelled with codes starting EB.
Most items aside from the single coins will be in clear front bags or grey plastic mailing sacks. Most would be labelled with stock codes listed above (EB, BKN or SC etc)

I know it may be difficult to assess what might be included there but if you are offered anything suspicious please contact me or Kent Police quoting reference 04-0254.

Thank you so much for you time in reading this and I hope we will be able to recover our stock or at least make it impossible to sell on for the thieves!
Kind regards

Bill Pugsley has been advised that a significant collection of very valuable and historically important coins have be stolen from a privat collection in Dublin this week.

The collection includes an almost complete datew run of Sovereigns from 1817 to 1968 (only 1819 missing). There are twp 1841 Sovereigns of which one is uncirculated or near so.

Additionally, there are stunning Guineas, two Guinea and five Guinea pieces that are also missing.

This looks like a targeted robbery BUT it may have been untargeted in which case the coins may have been offered merely for melting - which would be a disaster for numismatics.

If you see or are offered stunning coins that may have come from this collection, please call Dublin Garda. If you are not in Ireland but ehar about the coins - please contact Bill Pugsley directly and he will pass on the information.

On Sunday April 24, 2016 two Idaho dealers on their way home from the Tukwila, WA coin show were victims of a vehicle burglary when they stopped approximately 30 mins after leaving the show. The suspects used an unkown type of instrument to open the driver's door giving them access to three plastic totes and a large wooden briefcase containing over $100,000 in coins and cash. Two vehicles were used during the offense which were described as a new Chevrolet Equinox with California plates and possibly a older Subaru with Washington plates. The only description of the suspects was that one was a white male.

The theft of a hoard of fourteen  late Roman gold coins from display from Chelmsford Museum during opening hours has been discovered this morning.  Although the display case was not covered by CCTV, the case was alarmed and secured with special security screws.  The alarm does not appear to have been activated, but the perpetrator  had probably researched the situation in advance, and came armed with the necessary screwdriver in the knowledge that no CCTV camera was trained on the case.

The coins were discovered in the 1990s  near Good Easter by a metal detectorist and acquired by Chelmsford Museum.   The coins were issued by the emperors Arcadius and Honorius, and  minted in Milan and Ravenna in Italy, between   AD 394 and 406. One rarer coin,  however, depicts Constantine III, the last emperor whose coins are found in Roman  Britain,  and which was minted in Lyons, France  in AD 407-8.

The Police, the National Security Adviser at Arts Council England,  and other Museums have been notified.

It has recently come to our attention that a group of silver pennies of Alfred the Great and Ceolwulf II have appeared on the market.  The coins, we are informed consist of the lozenges types and the two Emperor/two figure types, some unpublished and unknown and many of extreme rarity.   They are believed to be from an undeclared hoard of treasure found along with some jewellery along the Welsh marches.  Some of our members have seen/been offered these items, but to our knowledge no BNTA dealer has purchased any.  We are aware that the British Museum has prompted a Police enquiry which is ongoing and we had been waiting for further information before making this announcement.

The Police have not been forthcoming with any advices so we have taken it upon ourselves to issue this warning.   Please use the utmost caution when buying any items that may be related to this alleged hoard - buying such coins will be regarded as concealment  of "Treasure"  under the Treasure Act and subsequently will be dealt with as if "handling stolen property".

Should you feel you have any information we will be pleased to put you in touch with the British Museum or the local Police handling the case.

This iconic South African coin was stolen, together with the safe which it was in, whilst my wife and I were away on holiday last week. It's been in the family for well over a hundred years so as well as being valuable also has great sentimental value.

I have insured it for just over £10,000 and it will be immediately indentifiable to anyone in the know.

Here's a link to a website describing the history of this coin which you may find interesting.

Please could you be on the look out for anyone who is trying to sell numismatic gold coins in quantity but who do not appear to have any idea of what they are, One of our locations was hit last night, and a large quantity of scarce and rare guineas and sovereigns were taken, Some of which can be seen on our current coins link below.

http://www.agcoins.co.uk/currentcoins

Other coins taken are still to be accounted for but range from standard good grade 1840s/50s/60s/70s shield backs, Australian minted shield backs, Edward and George V Canada, Perth and Melbourne scarce and rare types. Along with a number or early high grade silver and copper coins and possibly a few stamps and banknotes.

We will put together a full list of what is missing shortly, but as you can see from our images the types of coins we have in general are fairly distinctive and especially if anyone is trying to sell a number in one go should stick out like a sore thumb i hope,

I am concerned that these may end up going through a jeweller who will not know what they are, so if anyone can put the early warning out to jewellers too that would be great.

If anyone hears anything please do contact us on the numbers below,

Best regards

Limassol-Cyprus

Subject: Five (5) Cyprus rare coins have been stolen

1.  We would like to refer to the above mentioned subject in order to inform you that five (5) rare Cyprus coins and 40 other scarce world coins have been stolen during the shipment from Greece-Athens to PCGS located in Paris, between the dates 22nd – 24th of May 2014.

2.  Our company, «Cointime Ltd», bought the five (5) rare Cyprus coins from Baldwin’s auction 6/86 which was held on the 6th of May 2014 in London. («Ex. Arielle Collection» Lot 166, Lot 188 and Lot 218).

3.  The rare Cyprus coins are the following:

a.  Cyprus ¼ Piastre 1880 of Queen Victoria. This coin looks like Proof but we believe that it would have been graded as MS65BN PL according the USA standards or Brown Uncirculated (Prooflike) according to the UK standards. The coin has a mirror surface and brown color both sides which makes it looks proof but we believe it is an early strike.

b.  Cyprus ½ Piastre 1908 of King Edward VII. We believe that this coin would have been graded as MS63BN or MS64BN according to the USA standards or Brown Uncirculated according to the UK standards. This coin has some red luster on reverse and light brown color both sides. This is the weakly struck variety (King’s portrait on obverse and the line from ½ on reverse are weakly stuck).

c.  Cyprus Proof set of 3 silver coins dated 1921 of King George V. The coins are 4 ½ Piastres, 9 Piastres and 18 Piastres all dated 1921. These coins have dark grey and blue patina and we believe that they would have been graded as follows: 18 Piastres PF64-65, 9 Piastres PF64-65 and 4 ½ Piastres PF63-64. The 4 ½ Piastres has a few light hairlines from an old cleaning which are under the deep grey and purple patina. All coins have a matching dark grey and blue toning except the 4 ½ Piastres which has also a light purple color mixed with grey.

4. The above 5 coins as well as many other gold, silver, copper and nickel world coins, had been sent to PCGS Paris, via Fedex, through a Greek coin dealer located in Athens. Once the package was received and opened under a camera at PCGS Paris, it had been found that 45 coins as well as the 3 submission forms were missing from the package. After investigation by authorities in Athens and also by the members of staff at

PCGS in Paris, the coins had never been found. All suspicions seem to show that the coins were either stolen during the shipment or before the shipment in Athens. Unfortunately we are unable to solve this mystery but we believe that the rarity and the quality of these coins make them unique. We believe that it would be easy for us to identify them, even if these coins have been tampered with (altered color of different patina). It is very wired that they didn’t steel the gold coins included in the package which were more than 30.

5. The other stolen coins were 20 Gem Uncirculated Malaya & British Borneo 20 Cents 1961 of Queen Elizabeth II (MS65-MS67) belong to our company, which have been purchased from Ebay and 20 modern Greek coins from King Paul I and King Constantine II of which we have been informed that belong to other collectors/coin dealers from Greece.

6.  We would appreciate all Numismatic Associations, Numismatic Societies, Coin Dealers, Auction Houses, Coin Forums and Coin Collectors to please keep an eye out for these coins and if you do come across this, please report it to the police and contact us immediately.

7.  We would like to send you the pictures of the five (5) rare Cyprus stolen coins herewith but what no possible.

8.  We thank you in advance for your cooperation/assistance and we hope to inform all your members about this issue in order to protect them and also help us resolve this matter.

The item was then despatched and received which we have had notification of however we have now had a chargeback from Worldpay indicating that the transaction was never authorised.

A Salut D'or of Henry VI which was stolen sometime after 20th March in Brussels from the mail.

Its precise details are:-

Henry VI Salut d'or, E270c in VF condition, ex-the Reigate Brokes Road Hoard 1990, and originally sold at the Glendinning Auction of 8 December 1992, Lot 121.

All details are on the attached printout from the DNW Auction of 12 December 2005, lot 955.

I hope that the thief may slip-up and try and sell it in France, Belgium or the Netherlands which may lead to one of your members spotting the coin.  It is not too bright, having a deep gold toning.

A vast majority of the stock of our colleagues Joël and Michael Creusy (Lyon, France) has been robbed when they were returning from the Paris coin fair on Saturday. As establishing a list of the stolen items will take time, please take a look at their website before making any purchase.

There is now a reward on offer.

The Creusy family offers a reward in the amount of 80,000 euros for anyone who could help us by providing any information regarding our collection.

Thanks and kind regards,

A robbery took place at the Midland Coin Fair on Sunday 9th Feb. Two men in a car, probably stolen, stopped by the vehicle of dealer Ian Murray, one man got out, smashed the rear window with a hammer and took a briefcase that had just been placed there. This was in full view of about a dozen people, some only 10 yards away and took less than 10 seconds. The car then drove off into the motorway network. A spreadsheet of the stock is attached. I am still waiting for a crime number from the police and a contact person but if anyone should have any information please contact Mike Veissid until these details are available.

Around 1100 objects were recently stolen from one of Derby Museums' stores. The theft seems to have taken place sometime between 2nd May and 19th June 2012 and the stolen items are mainly coins, tokens, commemorative medals and pocket watches.
The coins and medals have no museum marking on the object itself (as is usual museum practice for numismatics). Instead they were each housed in an individual brown paper envelope, mostly marked with the museum accession number and identification information. Once removed from these envelopes they will be difficult to positively identify. The watches mostly had their museum accession number marked on them somewhere (in ink, covered with a layer of varnish). However, this could be quite easily removed. For your reference, should you happen to see an envelope or marked number, the museum accession numbers will usually be preceded by the code DBYMU and the number will be in the form of a year with an appended unique number. They will usually be in this format: DBYMU 1912-100 (for instance) but may have additional part numbers, such as DBYMU 1912-100/4, or may have the numbers in a different order, such as 100 – ‘12 – 4.
The coins are mostly generic, national issues of silver and bronze. They range from a penny of Henry II (c.1180) to late 20th century issues of Elizabeth II and represent most monarchs in between, including the Commonwealth. There are also a few issues of Scotland, Ireland and the Channel Islands. They include various denominations and are of varying levels of fineness and wear. We are aware that it will be difficult to positively identify these coins unless they are found as a group.

The tokens are mostly local issues of Derby and Derbyshire, predominantly from the 17th and 18th century. The collection of around 150 17th century trade tokens naming business in the county may be more easily identifiable than the national issue coins as these are much rarer.

The medals are mostly of 18th and 19th century date and include issues commemorating local and national events and personalities. Most of these are generic and would be difficult to positively identify. There are, however, some named awards medals, such as school prizes and Great Exhibition awards, which could be identified. There are no military medals amongst the stolen items.

The pocket watches include some rare and unusual items which may well be easier to positively identify if they come to light. These include 3 18th century watches attributed to John Whitehurst (a local maker and important figure of the Enlightenment) and a further 15 or so watches of 18th or 19th century date, in gold and silver. In total around 40 watches and watch movements are missing.

Anyone with information about the whereabouts of the stolen items is asked to contact Derbyshire Police, telephone 101, quoting Incident 512 of 19 June. Anonymous information can be given to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

On the evening of Saturday 17th December 2011, 76 year old Llywelyn Thomas was murdered in his home in Chittering, Cambridgeshire, during what police believe was a burglary gone wrong.

Llywelyn was last seen alive by his son Richard who left the property at around 7pm. At 8.50pm Llywelyn received a telephone call from a friend. That call ended at 9.24pm. Detectives think two or more intruders arrived at the property sometime after that phone call ended.

The house is located on the A10 and is difficult to reach on foot. Police believe the intruders may have arrived by car then blagged their way into the house. Llywelyn was subjected to a violent assault and suffered significant head injuries. He was beaten around the head with a blunt instrument, such as a poker or a crowbar. The murder weapon has not yet been found.

Several items were stolen from the property, including three watches and a collection of coins.

The coin collection was the victim’s son’s own collection from childhood and although not particularly valuable there are some distinctive coins as follows:

A 1668 Robert Brooke halfpenny. This has initials RB on one side and on the other side “his halfpenny”. Richard states that there are probably no more than 20 of such coins per year that come available. There was also a Kennedy half dollar and a Churchill silver crown.

The coins were kept in transparent leaves in a landscape shaped burgundy coloured vinyl ring binder, . The folder was then kept in a burgundy open ended sleeve. Depending on the size of the coins there would have been possibly 10 per transparent page.

Richard would say there were less than 100 coins in total but more than 40/50. Many of the coins were old sterling.

Police would ask that collectors keep a look out for any of these items and in particular if they are presented together.

The Numismatic Crime Information Center is assisting the Ascension Parish Sheriff's Department located in Louisiana with a robbery that resulted in the death of two males and critically injuring a female. All three victims had their throats slit. The two male subjects died and the female is clinging to life in a local hospital.

The motive in the robbery was a gold coin collection valued at $500,000. The owner of the collection identified as Robert Marchand was a collector and well known businessman in Gonzales, Louisiana.

The brutal slayings probably occurred between 12am and 10am Saturday, February 18,2012. No list is available at this time but will be sent out immediately once I receive it from investigators.

Dealers should be on the look out for any person or persons bringing in a large amount of gold coins to sale or any unusual or suspicious phone calls related to gold coins. Preliminary information is that these coins were mostly numismatic coins not bullion.

Louisiana Dealers are encouraged to contact other dealers to alert them of this offense in case they do not receive our bulletins.

Cheshire Constabulary Crime Reference : CC1117 3263; Incident Number 897 of 23.6.11.

The burglary occurred at a house in Mere, near Knutsford in Cheshire. The house was unoccupied whilst the occupants, an Indian businessman and his wife, were away in London between1800 on 19th June 2011 and 2000 on 23rd June 2011. There was a very large amount of gold jewellery, both English and Indian, taken, together with a large amount of electrical items, etc.

Also taken was the genteman`s small collection of coins and banknotes, collected during his travels across the world as an engineer:

The following are all older coins and notes, dates not known:

Deutschmarks x4

Five-shilling Churchill Coins x 2

Five-shilling Queens` Silver Jubilee Coins x2

Old £5 notes x2

Old shilling notes x14

Old £20 note x1

Old £1 notes x15

One shilling coins x40

Silver coins x4

Swiss francs x4

Two-shilling coins x25

Indian `Gaddi` Rupees - rare - x2

Also taken was a large amount of more modern coins and notes from places such as India,Canada,Denmark,Egypt,Qatar,Russia,Singapore,U.S., etc.

If each of the above items were sold separately then I would understand if they raised no query; however, taken as a collection then they must surely arouse some interest / suspicion as to where, and from whom, the potential seller had acquired them.

Should you, or any of your colleagues, have any queries, then please do not hesitate to contact me, or my colleague DS Tony King, on the number below.

There was also a complete collection of farthings from Edward VII 1902 to date (1956) samples all at least in GVF condition in single coin album page – the top row of which contained about 6 or 7 Victorian farthings (I think 3 veiled heads) of different dates.

There were also loose album pages including various British coins – many not particularly valuable and only average.

Some of the better items were a 1902 shilling (GVF) , a 1906 florin (F), 3-off George VI brass 3d bits (VF – EF), and about 3-4 silver 3d's from George V and George VI reigns.

There was also a mini-pocket wallet containing amongst other coins, 2 large American Silver dollars (one 1921 in GVF).

There was a collection of about 8-off German silver coins some of which I think were from the 50's or 60's (c. GVF), and other foreign coins almost loose just in coin sleeves.

Other loose coins (only in individual coin sleeves) included 1951 Crown, 1965 Churchill Crown, 1953 Crown.

There were album pages of foreign coins from different countries, many taken from circulation but some bought.

Further to the information provided under Coins Stolen at Berlin World Money Fair, I am pleased to say that some of these coins have been recovered in Paris. Two Colombian men are in jail in France for receiving stolen property, international conspiracy and false identity. After their sojourn in a French jail they will be extradited to Germany to face further charges of false identity and theft. The recovery was possible thanks to the courage of numismatic dealer Claude Burgan who was offered these coins by the criminals who are now in jail.

The coins below were stolen from the Collectors Centre, just outside Eastbourne Railway Station early in the morning of 1 November. The thieves broke into a very secure building and targeted the coins. The collection was housed in 5 Lindner trays (red base) and the value is around £8,000. The collection consisted predominately of high quality British silver from 1816 to 1936.
Key items included a choice collection of sixpences including a number of pre 1887 dates, a good selection of Edward VII and George V.
Inusual items include an 1839 proof groat, a choice 1819 halfcrown, proof odds of 1950 such as a 3d, an 1897 large silver medallion boxed, a few cartwheel 2d's.
A distinguishing feature is may of the prices were written on the plain side of old Christmas cards so there is a 'festive' design on the reverse.

I am a detective working on a Burglary Investigation Team at Hereford Police station, West Mercia Police.

Over the last five years we have been having a series of burglaries on our area which are mainly targeted for jewellery. However, last Thursday the 7th oct 2010 we had a house burglary where gold coins and jewellery were stolen.

Would it be possible for you to send an e-mail to your members in reference to the stolen coins just in case they are offered to any of your members. The presentation boxes appear to have been left at the scene which suggests they will probably get scrapped.

The coins stolen are as follows:

4 x Krugerrands

2 x double Sovereigns

6 x Sovereigns

4 x half Sovereigns

1 x 1711 Guinea

3 x Montgomery coins (3 sizes)

"aes grave" Roman bronze coins purchased by Bernard Poindessault during the sale of the Changarnier Collection (Munzen & Medaillen, Basel, November 30 and December 1 1972) were in the safe deposit box that was emptied by burglars who broken in the "Pyramides" agency of the Credit Lyonnais, situated in the Avenue l'Opera, during the night of 27 to 28 March 2010. Along with these coins, there was Bernard Poindessault's personal copy of the auction catalogue in which he had noted, during the sale itself, the prices realized.

Also stolen were coins bought in London in 1972, or a few years later, from Spink & Son and Seaby. Others, bought from American dealers have tickets with prices in dollars. Most of these coins, French or foreign, are in silver (ecus or thalets) and in good condition and each has the ticket of the firm from which it was purchased.

Please contact us immediately if you come across one of the stolen "aes grave" or other coins so we can inform the French police in charge of stolen works of art.

In 1991 I had my Grandfathers 3 WW1 medals stolen from my home in Johannesburg, South Africa. A 14-15 Star, a Victory and a War Medal. I thought that was the last I would ever see of them. They were in the name of 2Lt G.E Haynes R.E. I knew little about my Grandfather, but 4 years ago I was in the UK and checked out his records in the PRO. I didn't read much into them and it was only by chance later that I did a search on the 11th East Lancashire Battalion on the net and I realised he was an original 'Accrington Pal', had joined up under a false name so he could basically 'do a runner' on his pregnant 1st wife. The other factor was that he had nothing to do with the Accrington area, being a Londoner. Anyhow, he was at the first day of the battle of the Somme and features throughout William Turners book, however never under his real name (Frank McVickers was his 'alias'). He was then commissioned (from Sergeant Signaler, 11th East Lancs (X Coy "Districts")) into the Royal Engineers as a 2Lt in 1917. He was discharged as a Lt in 1920).

To turn out more info, I got in touch with people at museums in Accrington and was amazed to find out that only months before they had been contacted by a medal collector who 'had your grandfathers medals'. They even had a name and an email address and I contacted this gentleman from my (now) home in Sydney Australia and he had indeed had my medals for a short period of time having bought them on Ebay. However, he had sold them at a militaria fair somewhere in the north of England and had not recorded who they were sold to. So, so near but so far, they disappeared again after this fluky brush with them over 13 years later! It might be of interest to confirm the legend that surviving Accrington Pals wore the 14-15 Star in protest to the fact that Churchill had refused to grant it. The 14-15 Star I had had the name erased as each would have got one after the war privately and removed the original name. I also have a picture of my grandfather as Major G.E Haynes, C.O, A Coy, 7th Herts Home Guard (HTS7) in 1944 where he is clearly wearing the ribbon. The 11th East Lancs always insisted to a man that they had been in action in the 14-15 period, having been torpedoed on their way to France from Egypt on the last day of 1915! (just before they were nearly wiped out at the battle of Serre). They also insisted that they had served in a war zone being Egypt (threatened by the Turks) even though they never saw action. This apparently the other requirement for being awarded the Star. The Star was not present with the 2 other medals the collector had, mainly because it probably would have been discarded by someone who didn't realise the significance of the unnamed medal. Any Accrington Pals collection with 3 medals, the Star being unmarked is authentic therefore, not just someone trying it on.

Anyhow, what I am trying to find out if any member can help by recalling if they ever came across these medals or have them in their possession. They were sold with the PRO copies marked "Frank McVickers alias George Edward Haynes" so they would really stand out. I would appreciate them back and even though they are technically stolen property would be prepared to pay either a reasonable market value or what the person paid for them. Can anyone please help or have any other suggestions where I might list this appeal? My email address is inpoint@optushome.com.au

Thank you very much for your assistance

Anthony Halse has reported that an old friend and customer of his was burgled during the last 3 weeks whilst he was away on holiday. His home was completely ransacked during the burglary. His collection consisted of a very large number of gold coins which included a complete date set 1817  to 2009 of sovereigns (all except 1819) plus around 46 duplicate dates.

14 Guineas, five pound gold coins (6), Two pounds (4), Isle of man 1973 set £5 down, gold 20 francs and 20 lires of France (over 100) Switzerland(38), Belgium(14), Italy and Sardinia (72) also 8 40 Lire, various gold coins of Denmark (14) Spain (5), South Africa(8), Russia (20) Tunisia (12) San Marino (32) Cheloslovakia (6) Austria and Hungary (over 100) Turkey (around 100) and many more. The collection also consisted of Threepences from 1670 to 1967, 6 double florins (two with the inverted date) florins (31, all pre 1888) 3 shilling bank tokens (6) and various duplicate gold coins.

The collection is primarily a date collection so although the quality is not always high there is very little duplication of the early dates.

The collection was taken along with a good collection of around 20 antique gold pocket watches one watch in particular is very recognisable, it is 18 carat, English, the hallmark is London 1817, a full plate movement with a quarter repeater, white dial with roman numerals, key no. 6 made by Hawley, 75 the Strand London.

Anthony Halse has a full list of the all items stolen but only paper copies. If anyone requires a copy he will willingly send them one.
