The finest 1813 NSW Dump offered by Downies

One of the first two coin types struck on Australian shores, along with the 1813 Holey Dollar, the 1813 NSW Dump represents a compelling combination of extreme rarity and rich colonial history. Created by punching the centre from Spanish Silver 8 Reales coins, and part of an attempt by Governor Macquarie to keep currency in the colony, the 1813 NSW Dump is known by less than 1,000 examples. It is one of Australia’s most important rarities.

A tantalising opportunity for the serious collector, the coin before you is the finest 1813 NSW Dump offered by Downies is more than 90 years in the industry.

Excessively rare D/2 Type!

One of the great icons of Australian numismatics, and a rarity of world standing, the 1813 NSW Silver Dump D/2 Type is seldom seen on the market – irrespective of the grade.

When legal tender status was withdrawn in 1829, most Dumps were swapped for British currency or melted down. It is thought that less than 1,000 exist today, with only a tiny percentage of the D/2 type. Instantly identifiable as a D/2, the cross on the crown points between the ‘U’ and ‘T’ in ‘SOUTH’, there are stops between the words ‘NEW’, ‘SOUTH’ and ‘WALES’, and the pearls in the crown are equal in size and touch the top of the band.

A vast majority of the surviving examples of the D/2 type are very well worn, with a minuscule number in better grade. Featuring strong detail in the lettering and the crown, with traces of the original Spanish-American 8 Reales host coin, the D/2 coin before you has been graded by PCGS at XF45. Unusually for a D/2, the date is very clear and completely on the flan – testimony to the seldom seen quality of the coin.

With the D/2 type approximately three times as rare as the rare A/1 Type, and Downies never having offered a better example of the 1813 NSW Silver Dump, regardless of the type, the chance to secure an example in this stunning state of preservation deserves the most serious of consideration.
