The Collection of Greek Coins, the first portion of which is described in the following pages, is perhaps one of the most extensive and most interesting that has ever been formed by a private individual. Commencing quite in his early days Sir Edward Bunbury devoted his whole life to its formation, as well as to that of his collection of Eoman coins, which was sold at this house in June of last year. Sir Edward Bunbury did not confine his attention like some collectors to securing only the finest and most artistic pieces. Copper coins were as interesting to him as those of the finer metals ; in consequence his collection presents us with an exceptionally complete series of Greek coins of all parts, of all periods, and of all metals, viz. gold, silver, and copper. It is pre-eminently the collection of a scholar, and the useful purpose which it served is clearly illustrated by the late owner's numerous literary works. In fact it may be said to have formed the basis of his scholarly History of Ancient Geography published in 1879, his numerous articles in Smith's Dictionary of Greek and Roman Bio- graphy and Mythology, and the corresponding volumes of Geography, and his many contributions to the pages of the Numismatic Chronicle. Sir Edward Bunbury was a collector in the highest sense of the word, for not only was he an admirer of the fine works of ancient artists, but he combined with this last study the highest qualifications as a man of letters. His early success at Cambridge, where he graduated as Senior Classic in 1833 and took the Chancellor's Medal, marked him as a scholar of the first rank, and his pursuits and studies in after years well maintained his early reputation. Owing to the great extent of this Collection it has been deemed advisable to dispose of it in two portions. The first portion, which extends to 1258 lots, includes the coins of Italy, Sicily, European Greece, Crete, and the Islands. The second portion will comprise the coins of Asiatic Greece, Africa, &c. 3037472 ( iv ) A perusal of the pages of this Catalogue will show the complete- ness of the collection; nearly every city of Italy and European Greece of any importance and its rulers, of whom coins are known, are represented. The extent of certain sections is almost overwhelming, and shows what pains and perseverance were devoted to the formation of this Collection. Those sections which call for special notice are the more important cities of Magna Graecia (Tarentum, Heraclea, Metapontum, Croton, Ehegium, &c); Sicily (Camarina, Catana, Leontini, Messana, Segesta, and Syracuse) ; the Carthaginian and Siculo-Punic coinages ; Thrace, Macedon, Boeotia, Attica, Elis, and Crete. The series of Syracuse is very complete and comprises the works of nearly all the great die-engravers of that city, especially among these are Kimon, Evae- netos, Eukleides, Eumenes, and Phrygillus. There is also an example of the Demareteion, one of the most remarkable coins of the whole Greek series and no less than seven examples of the Dekadrachms of Kimon and Evaenetos, all in fine condition. The series of Alex- ander the Great is the most extensive ever brought together by a private individual, and includes specimens of the coins struck by that monarch over the whole extent of his wide dominions. The Athenian series, with the numerous tetradrachms bearing magistrates' names, is equally complete, and that of Crete has scarcely ever been surpassed. Of the extreme beauty and fine condition of many of the coins, the plates which are appended to the Catalogue will give some idea, and not a few are as remarkable for their rarity. Seldom does such an opportunity offer itself to collectors to add to their cabinets, and remembering the recent dispersal of the Montagu Collection of Greek coins it seems more than probable that a long time will elapse before another such chance will occur. Under present arrangements the remaining portion of the Bunbury Collection will be sold at this house in December next. SOTHEBY, WILKINSON & HODGE. - - * o o* *^ OD
