Just received my George I half crown. Very happy to ALMOST have this section of my 1660-1970 type set fully collected. Just need a nice and...
I decided last year to start a Maundy 1d type set to complement my regular UK collection. Happy to say my last piece is enroute; William III,...
Yeah. I recently bought a UK 1806 1/2 penny in AU and when it came it had an unnatural purple hue. Why anyone would meddle with a nice coin is...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Here's a 1763 Northumberland Shilling currently on eBay. Seller is in Hong Kong. Literally no other information in the listing....
Hey B40. I am coveting that 1799 1/2 d. Didn't you post a pic of a hot 1849 Godless florin you were sending off. How did that come back?
Thanks for your reply. It would be mostly for peace of mind as these crowns have a high incidence of forgery. Plus, I could go back to eBay for a...
So, I have a somewhat complete 1662-1970 UK type set (no gold). Still need some $$$ high value pre-George III crowns, Gothic crown etc. I took a...
Here's an interesting coin I just purchased. Ireland 1966 10 shillings (30 mm, .835 silver) celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Easter...
[ATTACH][ATTACH] That shield is really tremendous. I'm lacking only a dozen or so high $$ coins to complete my 1662-1970 UK type set (Gothic...
This half crown is on the way. It's a good upgrade from my current. [ATTACH]
I have a Spink in front of me. 3497 has a very different harp. That's the issue. It can't be authentic if it has the 1700 (crown) harp.

Haha. Yes. This particular harp did not appear on English coins until 1700. The coin in question was issued in 1695. Did no one read the text of...
Thanks, but I think that it's more about the logical and provable fact that this coin is completely inauthentic. And it's nice to see that you...
Here's a great reference book I use: The English Silver Coinage From 1649 Seaby/Rayner 1968. Every pattern and every minute difference between...
So, I have an issue. And maybe one of you can help with it. This 1695 'Shillings' has been listed to eBay recently (under shilling). Problem is...
Very nice. Do you have many other Hanover coins?
You are (obviously) an awesome chap! All I'm missing are William IV 1/2 and 1/3 as well as the Victoria YH 1/4 and 1/3. I have everything else....
Awaiting delivery of this sweet 1888 groat to add to my type set. Even though it wasn't minted for use in England, I feel that my set needs these...
[IMG] I've been wanting to upgrade my Ed VII florin for a while and I saw this on ebay earlier today. Sent him an offer and he quickly accepted....
