Looks good to me - my understanding is that the edges were rolled prior to striking. Also, as for the diameter discrepancy, the flan would expand...
I would tend to agree with your attributions. It was not at all unusual in the low countries to reuse flans. This period was turbulent for the...
It is a 'middle east' reproduction of a 1911 British £2. In the 1960s-80s, there was a huge demand in the middle east for British gold for use in...
Crazy - within a couple of hours of posting the above, I actually ran across a previously unrecorded edge variety on a Scottish Conder token...
As a dealer with over 15 years in the industry (not to mention the fact that I started out as a collector before that), I can tell you that...
Both - There is a Russian trading on this platform (at best / at worst, a Russian on a Russian Controlled platform) making problems about payment...
I live in Poland... hence my bias, but this screams of sanction subversion, and if this is a Russian counterparty - DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THEM....
As a dealer, I have had to assess in bulk for some time. Sometimes (as in this case), I just have an initial gut reaction of 'that is off,' and...
Also feels like non value-added self-promotion...

From what I see, none of the imaged coins will carry any sort of premium for tone.
I would describe it as 'die erosion' - from my understanding this is a die issue, and not a plating issue. Chips are also a common occurrence on...
It is die deterioration - RM really works its dies these days. The number of minor (and not so minor) varieties to be found on the 2016-20 £1...
Yes, this is very common, especially on the more recent 10, 20 and 50p coins.
Looks normal to me...
Looks like a counterfeit struck on a foreign planchet - I recognize that edge, but for the life of me can't remember specifically where from....
Interesting they are using a proximate design to the 1960 Crown for the obverse.
I have this one - good detail and patina, but unfortunately pierced... Priced accordingly, and still a good type coin....
Hi All, especially @lordmarcovan - token arrived today - many thanks! Possibly just as appreciated (if not more) was included one of LordM's famed...
I believe it is genuine, but a VG details coin - heavily cleaned, possibly previously mounted.
