    According to the D&H: It is a river god reclining on an urn, inscribed CLYDE, from which water is issuing.


    Marty's is a Fertility god. They are both gods.image

    I bid on this lot in the recent October Dix Noonan auction and lost. However, I was lucky to be able to obtain it from the person that did win the lot.image

  • I also got one of the James Watt pieces for that lot. I think Cosmics is nicer than the one I got but I also have one of the same variety from a difernt source that makes both of them look bad. A nice choice proof piece.
  • cosmicdebriscosmicdebris Posts: 12,332 ✭✭✭
    I loved to see the Proof one.

    P.S. I wanted the SOHO mint paper wrapper too but he would not give that up.

    Beautiful Conder Bill and congrats on tracking it down. My favorite is the reverse, love that shield design!
  • I tried to get the paper wrappers too but he isn't letting go of them. I can understand why though, he is doing some research with them and how they relate to the time periods when the various groups were put together.
