Woodbridge, Robert Loder, Restrike Proof Penny, 1796, in silver, bust of Thomas Sekford three-quarters right, rev. arms of the Sekford family, edge plain, 22.97g/6h (DH 15b; Judson –). Virtually as struck and attractively toned, extremely rare (£500-700)

Provenance:
SNC June 2005 (3381).

Lutwyche’s dies survived with the Loder family and the issuer’s grandson had six impressions in silver struck c. 1880. One example and the defaced dies were presented to the British Museum; for the distribution of the others see Waters, 1954, p.26. It seems possible that this specimen could be the Mather/Longman/A.W. Jan piece
