Agree with Paddy, and I seem to recall some articles written abut the prevalence of many specimens, seemingly higher grade coming to market a...
Well it graded 64. I really am not feeling that and even in hand it looks the 66/7 grade.
I would agree with the 66, maybe 67....Will post in a couple of hours
I got this coin several years ago and while not the best, was pleasing. So I left it for grading at the TPG. Below are pictures & because obverse...
This is one of my favorite OMS coins, other than the 1963 halfcrown in copper. It is a 1967 Penny struck on the flans for the florin and weighs in...
Interesting. Yes, I do have a number of OMS strikes including all of the pennies 1964-67 in apparently copper nickel alloys, but also several...
I am wondering if this was the composition of the Halfpenny as well - iron? Hard to believe....BTW, Rob, please let me know if you ever want to sell.
I suppose whatever it would bring at auction as this is right up my alley and have in 30+ years seen no others. I would imagine a couple of...
This has never been written up anywhere I could find: this is an UNCIRCULATED 1970 GB Halfpenny, BUT it is an off metal strike that NGC...
[ATTACH] I will bring this coin to the Baltimore show this Saturday, 3/23 and will be there until about 1:30. It slabbed as AU Details by PC but...
I have several posts on getting rid of copper oxidized red spots on gold coins, take a look if interested. Here is a 1980 Panama 100 Balboas unc...
I would agree. Many Gothic florins have this very light circulated appearance, GEF or 58 IMHO...
I really like this coin which in hand is more lustrous than picture and of silver. Mintage: 150. Apparently not authorized but a very nice coin....
I got this at auction a couple of years ago after waiting patiently for the opportunity. The 1869 in high grade is extremely scarce, and while...
I did a bit of investigation and note that the TPGs, PCGS and NGC have graded very few of these and the higher graded specimens look to have been...
Does this count? 1956 Egypt 50 Piasters Commemorates freedom from Britain (in a way). I believe it a specimen but since no specimens known was...
IMHO, always a problem when something bucks up against common sense.... "Run, Forrest, run"!
Ah, really like them too. The quarter went MS64 and the half MS63. Actually as both were toned the higher surfaces oxidized by contact (ie leg,...
Just to share a couple of piece bought raw "across the Pond" and just back from PCGS. These looked nice and picked them up, thinking them worthy...
This came back today from PCGS MS67!!! S[IMG]
