    So the Davisson 3g Bristol was a tad too expensive, so I bought a second best option - egg-waisted S 3g with the wide face bust! It feels like it could be slightly less common as the other ‘pointed chin’ bust pops up quite frequently - can’t 100% state that as a fact though! An OK coin I think...for now!

    Apparently you could purchase catalogues with the prices and buyers transcribed post-sale. That's why they are always written neatly.

    Until the TPGs assigned a label to those with frosted designs, nobody cared. It's just an exercise in marketing. Historically descriptions were made based on whether it was currency (default), proof or specimen, notwithstanding the debate over the past 50 years defining specimen vs proof. I highly recommend the two point grading scale - does away with all this irrelevant hot air.

    We all accept there are nicer coins than others, just be happy if you like what you have. As for bronze pennies, the Adams proof 1961 would have passed the audition without question, and attached below are two halfpennies, 1957 on the left, 1954 on the right. Only scans, but clearly one is and one isn't.

    Yes, but a label is worth a thousand opinions, ker-ching

    Those opinionated vegetables need to learn how to deliver feedback more effectively. I would suggest less stick, and more carrot. The other vegetable is just a total knob.

    Just received an email from Sovereign Rarities with their latest offerings which contain items described as "Ultra Cameo" and "Deep Cameo". This is getting ridiculous. They seem to inventing dozens of new grades at the top end. Any excuse to charge a bit more......

    Wonder how many people took them up on their offer of a £1 banknote instead of gold? Not many, I'd wager.
