    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    Glad to see he's followed the rule we try to abide by: "This coin has not been cleaned."
  2. You just wait until you get the wine ones! Personally, I prefer to drink mine rather than look at pictures.

    I thought you were going to say you got this from Warwick & Warwick!

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    Bought in bulk from Austria: http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/oldtimermonger/
  5. I don't bother bidding at all unless I'm in London. The software is totally flawed. Sigh.

    'Medieval' coin.

    Elizabeth I Sixpence

    Send me an email in April and I'll see what I can do.
  8. As Richard says, most likely +AIMER: ON: LVNDE. The moneyer and double-barred obverse N suggests Richard I, class 3.

    Henry III Halfpenny

    The reverse of your piece reads RIO NLV with the N and L ligated. Perhaps a class Vb. Hard to tell with the absence of the crown or eyes.

    I've offered him £100, do you think that's enough? I think something's fishy about the listing...perhaps the postage that looks too cheap?

    He has relisted it.The original description was CELTIC :D I did tell him what he had and the value would be approx cut 1d (a few £) Not tempted to have a punt, Peter? I'll tell you what, make him an offer he can't refuse!

    Very Good Condition.

    Who knows. But I could certainly part with a few pennies at that price!

    £132 for a Gloucester penny? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HENRY-III-HAMMERED-SILVER-LONG-CROSS-PENNY-COIN-1216-72-AD-/271166061491?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT&nma=true&si=bRJnZbDLLwaWhcuExkbHMMzGZjE%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

    I saw this and thought the same. Also, it appears that Edward was a fan of Twitter as it's got a lovely hashtag on the obverse, too. Shame.

    Another Edward. Unknown Mint.

    Do you mean specific in terms of the reading of the mint? If you mean in terms of class, then yes, unfortunately the photograph does make things difficult.
  18. Edward I, very hard to tell with the portrait but looks akin to a class 3 variant.

    The final Edward (Durham)

    Edward III - will need better images to narrow it down. Nice, clear reverse.
  20. HistoricCoinage

    Another Edward. Unknown Mint.

    It's an Edward I London penny. CIVI TAS LON DON - starting at 3 O'clock with the orientation of your image. Hope this helps.
  21. HistoricCoinage

    An unidentified longcross

    Well, it's hard to tell from the photos but I've seen similar examples that are definitely genuine. Sometimes it's just the debasement.

    Trouble with Edwards #1

    What is the diameter of this piece? It looks more like an Edward I farthing - something like a class 10.
  23. HistoricCoinage

    A York Edward...

    Edward III, pre-treaty period, York Royal issue. Perhaps series E.
