Richard Sackville (1589-1624), Baron of Buekhursl and 3rd Earl of
Dorset. The original medal by de Passe, in the British Museum, is
believed to be unique
Early in 1649 Thomas Simon was granted a commission to engrave
the Great Seal of the Commonwealth, but because Parliament were
in a great hurry to have the Seal Simon was given less than a month
to complete it (Allen, BNJ 1940, p.440: Nathanson p.19). This first
hasty effort was replaced in 1651 with another Seal of the same
design, but executed with much greater care. The 1651 Seal is a
magnificently crafted work, full of fine detail: the best known
illustration of it was first published by Vertue in 1753 from a wax
impression, then in the collection of Margaret Cavendish, Dowager
Duchess of Portland; her collections of coins, medals and gems were
dispersed post mortem in two auctions in 1786. The Simon archive
included a pen and brown ink design for the 1649 Seal (Christie's 14
July 1987, lot 17), but no sketch of the completed design for the 1651
Seal is believed extant

The Eisteddfod is Wales’s foremost cultural event, celebrating
poetry, singing and other arts. Welsh eisteddfodau have a very
ancient history, supposedly dating from pre-Roman times. It can be
traced with certainty to an event at Cardigan castle in 1176 and was
an established tradition by the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries.
Thereafter it declined but was revived towards the late 18th century
by emergent London Welsh learned societies and Edward Williams
(known as lolo Morganwg). From 1881 the eisteddfod has been more
closely regulated than beforehand, with strict rules on how poems 662 British commonwealth games, Edinburgh, 1970, bronze
are structured and for example, the form of music composed for the commemorative medals by T. H. Paget (14), in perspex
harp. Ii was also decided that the event be held annually, alternating

does not exceed the previous bid by at least 5 percent or by
such other proportion as the auctioneer shall in his absolute
discretion direct.
3 The premium
The buyer shall pay to Dix Noonan Webb a premium of
17.625% on the ‘hammer price’ inclusive of Value Added Tax

credit terms have been agreed with Dix Noonan Webb before
the auction).
6 Dix Noonan Webb may, at its absolute discretion, agree
credit terms with the buyer before an auction under which the
buyer will be entitled to take possession of lots purchased up
to an agreed amount in value in advance of payment by a
determined future date of the ‘total amount due’.
7 Any payments by a buyer to Dix Noonan Webb may be
applied by Dix Noonan Webb towards any sums owing from
that buyer to Dix Noonan Webb on any account whatever
without regard to any directions of the buyer or his agent,
whether express or implied.
8 Collection of purchases

and insurance charges on any lot not taken away within 5
working days after the day of the auction.
(c) The packing and handling of purchased lots by Dix

regardless of the cause.
10 Buyers’ responsibilities for Lots purchased
The buyer will be responsible for loss or damage to lots
purchased from the time of collection or the expiry of 5
working days after the day of the auction, whichever is the
sooner, and neither Dix Noonan Webb nor its servants or
agents shall thereafter be responsible for any loss or damage
of any kind, whether caused by negligence or otherwise, while
any lot is in its custody or under its control.
11 Remedies for non-payment or failure to collect purchase
If any lot is not paid for in full and taken away in accordance
with Conditions 6 and 10, or if there is any other breach of
either of those Conditions, Dix Noonan Webb as agent of the

(e) to reject or ignore any bids made by or on behalf of the
defaulting buyer at any future auctions or obtaining a deposit
before accepting any bids in future.
(h) to apply any proceeds of sale than due or at any time
thereafter becoming due to the defaulting buyer towards
settlement of the ‘total amount due’ and to exercise a lien on
in any property of the defaulting buyer which is in Dix Noonan
Webb possession for any purpose.
 12 Liability of l)ix Noonan Webb and Sellers
(a) Goods auctioned are usually of some age. All goods are
sold with all faults and imperfections and errors of
description. Illustrations in catalogues are for identification
only, buyers should satisfy themselves prior to sale as to the
condition of each lot and should exercise and rely on their
own judgement as to whether the lot accords with its
description. Subject to the obligations accepted by Dix
Noonan Webb under this Condition, none of the seller, Dix
Noonan Webb, its servants or agents is responsible for errors
of descriptions or for the genuineness or authenticity of any
lor, no warranty whatever is given by Dix Noonan Webb, its
servants or agents, or any seller to any buyer in respect of any
lot and any express or implied conditions or warranties are
hereby excluded.
(b) Any lot which proves to be a ‘deliberate forgery’ may he
returned by the buyer to Dix Noonan Webb within 1.5 days of
the date of the auction in the same condition in which it was
at the time of the auction, accompanied by a statement of
defects, the number of the lot, and the date of the auction at
which it was purchased. If Dix Noonan Webb is satisfied that
the item is a ‘deliberate forgery’ and that the buyer has and is
able to transfer a good and marketable title to the lot free from
any third party claims, the sale will be set aside and any
amount paid in respect of the lot will be refunded: Provided
that the buyer shall have no rights under this Condition if:—
(i) the description in the catalogue at the date of the sale was
in accordance with the then generally accepted opinion of
scholars and experts or fairly indicated that there was a
conflict of such opinion; or
(ii) the only method of establishing at the date of publication
of the catalogue that the lot was a ‘deliberate forgery’ was by
means of scientific processes not generally accepted for use
until after publication of the catalogue or a process which was
unreasonably expensive or impractical.
(c) A buyer’s claim under this Condition shall be limited to any
amount paid in respect of the lot and shall not extend to any
loss or damage suffered or expense incurred by him
(d) The benefit of the Condition shall not be assignable and
shall rest solely and exclusively in the buyer who, for the
purpose of this condition, shall be and only be the person to
whom the original invoice is made out by Dix Noonan Webb
in respect of the lot sold.
Conditions mainly concerning Sellers and Consignors
13 Warranty of Title and Availability
The seller warrants to Dix Noonan Webb and to the buyer
that he is the true owner of the property or is properly
authorised to sell the property by the true owner and is able to
transfer good and marketable title to the property free from
any third party claims. The seller will indemnify Dix Noonan
Webb, its servants and agents and the buyer against any loss
or damage suffered by either in consequence or any breach on
the part of the seller.
14 Reserves
The seller shall be entitled to place prior to the auction a
reserve on any lot, being the minimum ‘hammer price’ at
which that lot may be treated as sold. A reserve once placed
by the seller shall not be changed without the consent of Dix
Noonan Webb. Dix Noonan Webb may at their option sell at
a ‘hammer price’ below the reserve but in any such cases the
sale proceeds to which the seller is entitled shall be the same as
they would have been had the sale been at the reserve. Where
a reserve has been placed, only the auctioneer may bid on
behalf of the seller.
15 Authority to Deduct Commission and Expenses
The seller authorises Dix Noonan Webb to deduct commission
at the ‘stated rate’ and ‘expenses’ from the ‘hammer price’ and
acknowledge Dix Noonan Webb’s right to retain the premium
payable by the buyer.
16 Recission of Sale
If before Dix Noonan Webb remit the ‘sale proceeds’ to the
seller, the buyer makes a claim to rescind the sale that is
appropriate and Dix Noonan Webb is of the opinion that the
claim is justified, Dix Noonan Webb is authorised to rescind
the sale and refund to the buyer any amount paid to Dix
Noonan Webb in respect of the lot.
17 Payment of Sale Proceeds
Dix Noonan Webb shall remit the ‘sale proceeds’ to the seller
not later than 35 days after the auction, but if by that date Dix
Noonan Webb has not received the ‘total amount due’ from
the buyer then Dix Noonan Webb will remit the sale proceeds
within five working days after the date on which the ‘total
amount due’ is received from the buyer. If credit terms have
been agreed between Dix Noonan Webb and the buyer, Dix
Noonan Webb shall remit to the seller the sale proceeds not
later than 35 days after the auction unless otherwise agreed by
the seller.
18 If the buyer fails to pay to Dix Noonan Webb the ‘total
amount due’ within 3 weeks after the auction, Dix Noonan
Webb will endeavour to notify the seller and take the seller’s
instructions as to the appropriate course of action and, so far
as in Dix Noonan Webb’s opinion is practicable, will assist the
seller to recover the ‘total amount due’ from the buyer. If
circumstances do not permit Dix Noonan Webb to take
instructions from the seller, the seller authorises Dix Noonan
Webb at the seller’s expense to agree special terms for payment
of the total amount due’, to remove, store and insure the lot
sold, to settle claims made by or against the buyer on such
terms as Dix Noonan Webb shall in its absolute discretion
think fit, to take such steps as are necessary to collect monies
due by the buyer to the seller and if necessary to rescind the
sale and refund money to the buyer.
19 If, notwithstanding that the buyer fails to pay to Dix
Noonan Webb the ‘total amount due’ within three weeks after
the auction, Dix Noonan Webb remits the ‘sale proceeds’ to
the seller, the ownership of the lot shall pass to Dix Noonan
Webb.
20 Charges for Withdrawn Lots
Where a seller cancels instructions for sale, Dix Noonan Webb
reserve the right to charge a fee of 15% of Dix Noonan
Webb’s then latest estimate or middle estimate of the auction
price of the property withdrawn, together with Value Added
Tax thereon and 'expenses’ incurred in relation to the
property.
21 Rights to Photographs and Illustrations
The seller gives Dix Noonan Webb full and absolute right to
photograph and illustrate any lot placed in its hands for sale
and to use such photographs and illustrations and any
photographs and illustrations provided by the seller at any
time at its absolute discretion (whether or not in connection
with the auction).
22 Unsold Lots
Where any lot fails to sell, Dix Noonan Webb shall notify the
seller accordingly. The seller shall make arrangements either to
re-offer the lot for sale or to collect the lot.
23 Dix Noonan Webb reserve the right to charge commission
up to one-half of the ‘stated rates’ calculated on the ‘bought-
in price’ and in addition ‘expenses’ in respect of any unsold
lots.
