perfect advice there are plenty out there to choose from
-
I would upgrade, but take your time to get coins with a similar tone, you should have plenty of choice. Good luck, Jerry

Alan's son Lief has a large part to play these days. Maybe that's the reason. Still, not had a problem with them though. I bought a token in the last sale which had a spot of verdigris, so he offered me a better one instead at the same price. Very happy.

Hi - I'm new to this group. I bought the 7 silver 1887 jubilee head coins some years ago - Over time these have developed an equal toning. Four of these are graded EF but the other 3, unfortunately, are only graded as VF. My question is: Do I buy 3 EF coins to make them all the same grade or would doing this devalue the set as the toning wont be the same Thanks in advance.

George VI Davissons
VickySilver replied to Coinery's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I have been somewhat saddened by what appears to be the demise of that company. I used to communicate with Alan about coins and got some quite decent pieces from him years ago & do hope he is well. I still look at their "offerings" but have not bid for quite a few years now. Well, here's to hoping the ship can be righted.... PS - really superb currency George VI crowns are hard to come by as I believe the planchets were not well cared for and there are nearly always bag marks, including in key areas. Same is generally true of the George V 1935 Jubilee crown issues. -
£7 sounds ok to me, even with the holes.

I have pared down my collection areas recently, one of my current passions is Charles I halfcrowns. I most recently acquired this difficult 1645 Oxford example, so that I now have at least 1 half-decent example of each year for that mint (1642-46).

You may be right, something’s definitely adrift? The starting prices are crazy-high too, I can’t even begin to imagine them selling. -

Yes I saw those - he has previously been possibly a bit conservative but believe that to be a family business. Is there now another hand involved with the grading and cataloguing? -
That's what my ex wife used to say. Told me, if I behaved myself, we could have another female instead, one day........

1902 Matte Proof Half Crown /Grading Askew?
Peckris 2 replied to VickySilver's topic in TPG Discussions
Wish it was mine! -
A nice enough example - some collectors are a lot less bothered about rim holes than others. I have an UNC 1826 halfcrown with graining weaknesses at 12 and 6 o’clock indicating it might have been held in a brooch or something similar. It’s never bothered me in the slightest.

Which rulers of England did not have coins issued during their reign ?
Peckris 2 replied to SiHawks's topic in Free for all
I'm puzzled about this. Edward V was never crowned king, and during his brief spell as monarch Richard III would have controlled the Mint. After Bosworth it would have been moot anyway. -

I really like the idea of a monarch run! -

I think the only definitely attributable coins to Edward V are the angels. TWW made a good case for this. -
it was in one of those lovely plastic envelopes can be bloody hard to open, I thought £7 was a good deal, so I coughed up and shoved it in my pocket...a done deal..... until later on that day.... I took a look at the outer edge.....top & bottom holes drilled prized out of jewellery ? and you know even though you cant see them....I always know they are there. please do show some of your horrors and let downs......its good to share... 👍

1860 halfpenny with R/R and possibly E/I or P?

I think if you had the groats S2146 and S2146A, one of them would be Edward V - but you wouldn't know which one (I've gone with S2146A, but could well be wrong!) -
the reverse look nice as well...a nice tone.....
