That is very useful reading and it sounds as if we should be reporting the seller in the original posting to Ebay everytime he lists until he...
I'm not great on US grading but if that coin counts as MS66 I've got a bridge I can sell you! :happy:
A bit like this? This is one of my spares at the moment. [ATTACH]
Ha Ha! I guess we are just better at spotting your shysters so we send them back! :happy:
I hope this is acceptable - posting a link to another coin forum (though in the UK so hopefully not seen as a competitor!)....
An update. I have managed to find some info on most of these (Numbering left to right, top to bottom): 1. Refers to to Louis 16th of France...
I have been asked to come up with some more information on this group of medals and medallions. I can read and research the words but I would...
Welcome Helon! Glad to see another Brit on this forum. Yes, we do get to see some wonderful Victoriana here. Not all are regular coins - here is...
Great - thanks for the update. I see quite a few of these in the UK but have always lacked a reference for them - I will keep an eye out for that...

The only excuse for breaking it out would be if the coin spins in its mount and so is not soldered directly to the silver dish. If this were the...
There is a quite a variety in sizes and weights in the William III crown. Here are 3 from my collection - the first 1695 measures 42mm, the second...
Thanks johnyb, that sounds pretty good! Would you give my coin VF? Would you use Verdicare on it to reduce the evidence of verdigris?
That sounds fair. I am in the UK so GBP 4 to 8. Amen!
That's rather what I suspected! So a fair price for mine at market would be....?
Yes - my 2011 edition of Krause gives $20 in Fine, $150 in VF, which seems a lot for a 20th Century Penny. My query, probably for someone who...
I picked up the attached Australian Penny a few weeks ago. When I look in Krause it implies that the 1920 with no dots above or below the scrolls...
