1892S pattern half sovereign

[Mr T]

I know there aren't many half sovereign collectors but does anyone here know of any sales of/listings of/references to a proof or pattern 1892S half sovereign?

I've been able to find sales or listings of all of the other pattern half sovereigns of the same era. I doesn't seem to exist in any institutional collection either.

Nothing in the obvious places - Nobleman, Huth, Dangar etc

I would maybe drop Eric Eigner of drakesterling.com. He's an Aussie dealer in mostly sovereigns, he helped collate the latest Marsh book I believe, there is a foreword of thanks to people who helped with the updated version and I'm sure he's in there.

Thanks - I saw nothing in the Murdoch collection.

I might reach out to Eric Eigner too.
