    A very scarce coin(1876 half sovereign St. George). Not to be confused with the shield backs which are more readily available. I think I was quite fortunate.

    Those are gorgeous coins. And so varied as well. Fantastic.

    Thanks! I assume you mean the Box of 20.

    That 1901 Canadian dime (ICG MS62) was part of an earlier collection of mine.

    Do you do the photography yourself or hire a professional? Those pictures are really phenomenal. Wish I could take photos like that. Always easier to blame the lack of a decent camera when things go wrong :)

    This is the only victoria i have a photo of. It was my great grandfather's. It's deep dark chocolate brown and completely mark free.

    Professionals took those pictures. Alas, I don't have the proper skill set yet, though I did just finally get a decent camera setup. So maybe in due time...

    That 1901 Canadian 10c did look nicer than 62 in hand. Looked more 63-64. But I left it in the ICG MS62 holder because I don't think it would've quite passed muster at PCGS or NGC. Had probably been dipped.

    1889 medal by Countess Feodora Gleichen for the Royal Agricultural Society Exhibition at Windsor. This 76mm medal was created by joining two repousse plates at the edge.

    I love the odd denominations on these Jersey coins, 1/26th of a shilling [​IMG]

    A little honest wear on an 1866 shilling, die number 13

    Great coins, WC & H8.

    That shilling has the type of look I like to silver.
