Looks good to me too - a very nice example. Anything under GBP300 would be a bargain. Looks to be a genuine seller too - realistic range of...
... Or you could look at it the other way round. Ebay, and other online means of selling, now represent a very large proportion of the whole...
Yes - looks to be moneyer Aelfnoth of London. Mint seems to be down as "OLUND" instead of "LUNDO" - can't see any notes in North suggesting this...

Let's not open up the gun laws debate - suffice to say that it is not possible to have a pistol of any sort over here legally. The only people who...
