Once I bought a 1876 EF half crown for £63 and sold it for £95

How much do they go for and if possible, could you tell me their mintage?

£2 Gold Locomotive Coin
Half Penny Jon replied to a topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I would have to agree with the Edward VII investments they are attractive due to their low mintage and high demand in better grades. I would also reccoment Wreath Crowns in UNC as a superb investment. -
I recieved an e-mail through one of my other forums. They are a pile of rubbish.

£2 Gold Locomotive Coin
Half Penny Jon replied to a topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I would invest in Victorian-George VI silver, copper, and bronze as they appreciate a lot in value. (Much more than the stock market can guarantee). If you do decide to invest in coins, Gold bullion would perhaps increase the slowest compared to other coins which are in much higher demand. -

Edward VIII
Half Penny Jon replied to Half Penny Jon's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Agreed! -
Hi everyone, I'm just curious if any Edward VIII sets have ever come up for sale? Also, in your opinion, how much would one sell for if it came onto the open market today? Finally, do any of you know if any sets exist and if so where are they?

There are also others to name a few: 1. Wide rim. 2. Calm sea and choppy sea (George VI halfpenny). 3. Crosses and letters pointing to beads (Emperor Oli will be the expert) -

It's massive. -
I would agree, GVF/VF. Can I ask if the shine is due to a camera flash or polishing?

Grading
Half Penny Jon replied to Master Jmd's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Correct, also, if a coin had full lustre, then you would need to grade it carefully because the lustre can sometimes be decieving. -
