    Perhaps the distinctive marks enabled a subsequent owner to trace it back to pictures from the Boulton sale?

    Define provenance/pedigree? For example, I'm about to buy an 1806 halfpenny from Michael Gouby. I asked him about provenance and he said all he could remember was that he bought it from Spink at a coin fair. So there's no evidence that it was ever in an 'important collection', but frankly the two names of Spink and Michael Gouby gives me confidence in the coin. Would I have paid extra? Perhaps just a little bit, but it's not that important.

    I've not heard of any - the first proofs were the 1971 set. I think those were struck in the early 70s at the London Mint who were too busy before 1971 to bother with proofs.

    Footnote: I've just entered values for George VI and almost across the board those prices have increased. It seems his reign has been undervalued and is now catching up. (Mind you, mostly there are only values for EF and UNC - but to compare, Elizabeth II is static.)

    Yes it was a temporary blip - anyone on the same time would have noticed it too.

    I assumed what was meant was a magnifier with two or three fold out lenses that can be used singly or in combination?

    it was the first 50p for 3 years.

    The difference between 3 or 4 lenses is purely less or more magnification factors.

    Assuming there is proof of purchase? I have my database of coins saying when where and who sold them, but no receipts.
