Good to see this thread resurrected! A few more that I don't think I have posted before: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Lets go back a bit further. These two just arrived from Auction: Celtic Britain, Dubonni Silver Unit ca 20 to 43 AD: [ATTACH] Celtic Britain,...
Mid 18th century is a difficult period for me. I collect mainly British coins and not many were produced in that period. Here is quite a decent...
My best George I Crown is also from 1723 - the "South Sea Bubble" era: [ATTACH]
That's certainly a mighty fine pick up! Even if the figures quoted are a little optimistic, you will still make a substantial gain if you sell it.

This just in - a decent upgrade for my 1867 Sixpence with die number 20. ESC 1717, Bull 3215, S3910. [ATTACH]
The halo effect around Britannia is called "ghosting" and results from the relief in the design of the head being too deep for the machinery of...
A few to contribute for 1760 - a British threepence, a Hollandia 2 Stuiver, and a rather grotty but interesting Irish halfpenny evasion: [ATTACH]...
