I have a request for anyone who may be able to assist me. I would like to find out more about Reginald Huth, who made a number of ephemeral patterns of various kinds. Is there some sort of reference that provides more specific information than what's on the Internet?
I poked around and found one lot from a 2007 Heritage sale of a Huth pattern. Coincidentally, it was struck by Pinches , a recent E-Sylum topic. Can anyone supply more information about Huth?

George V pattern Double-Florin, 1911, by Reginald Huth, struck in silver, Plain Edge. ESC-401. KM-PPn123.
the portrait shows King George in toga and ever so emperor-like, while the reverse design is a throng of mythic and emblematic creatures, including a dragon.
