    1992 Lion £1 Coin?

    doesnt look fake, actually still pictures of either side would be good at this point, lion rampant was 1994, oak tree was 1992

    |Toning

    pf 64 for this ?? does toning not have any effect on grade, unless it happened after it was slabbed, whats the deal with slabbed coins that go mouldy like that ? are they still worth the grade ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1937-SILVER-GREAT-BRITAIN-1-SHILLING-SCOTTISH-CREST-KING-GEORGE-VI-NGC-PROOF-64-/222398488454?hash=item33c7fb9f86:g:TsEAAOSwt0FZC3yI
  10. has some rust on it, a short session of electrolysis would probably remove it but i like the dark brown patina it has so i dont want to disturb it too much, so i have decided to leave it be, any advice on removing the rusty deposit cant post the pictures, its a propa pain trying add them on the forum, there the right size etc,

  15. dunno but its been getting silly with the amount of coins being issued, i even suggested to them a long time before the queens 90th to do a jubilee issue of the standard defintives but they didnt listen, what is the westminster connection with them,

    Edward Penny from last night

    i think it might be Edward II, yes has been preserved well, the subsoil is not very deep in the area and it doesnt get ploughed very often so was protected in a very tightly compressed lump of dirt that is like sand

    Edward Penny from last night

    Grrr, works now,
  21. i have noticed the other 3 from last year have crept up a bit, while people are prepared to pay they will go up, by how much who knows, silly money is changing hands for modern coins that are not rare

    Last Nights Sixpence

    was 10 pm as i was walking of the field last night in the Moonlight, love them last signal on the way back to the car hammy's, nice Sixpence of Elizabeth I, Mint mark is not clear, Went back this morning but no luck, there's always this evening though ;0)
