A Jacobite ring that bore a super secret cypher to prove the allegiance of its wearer to Bonnie Prince Charlie was sold for £12,200.
If you remember as well I as do cos I was there as mentioned in a previous post somewhere the little Italian fruit Bonnie Prince Charlie ran away at the battle of Culloden in 1746, back to the continent to drink, boast and live off the wealth of others and to become a romantic historical figure . Culloden was the last battle to be fought on British (or rather Scottish) soil.
