  1. Uh, more than one. It's the second this year, hence the reduced coin activity of late. I'm a bloke and thus can't multitask which is probably a good thing given the prices at Spink today. I was informed today during the course of the sale thatby working on the house I was in the right place, as attending the sale or bidding online would have been very depressing and/or impoverishing. £165K for the Mary ryal, £36K each for the R3 angel and Briot unite, £6K for the Harold 2 Chichester penny, £18K for the Alfred penny with legend around the bust. Big numbers for the special pieces, though the average bits were eminently affordable. Yikes My Spink is a couple of years old but the top price for ryal is £62.5k !!!! At those prices I would hide yourself down at Wickes.... I wonder what DNW is going to do today?

    Even for a Charlie that is a £20 coin....MAX.
  7. Cartel time chaps.Plattiepus/Surrey coins want the VF's to sell on as UNC's. If anyone wants to bid on copper PM me and between us we can sort a job. It is worrying.
  8. I wouldn't buy Boll**ks for that price.Unbeautiful

    Brown spots on silver coins.

    I had a badly tarnished 1937 silver crown.I bought some Goddards silver dip and with a cotton bud I managed to clear the brown muck. A rinse and a pat dry. Try at your peril though.

    CROWNS

    Why do CGS Slab Shite and try to evoke large premiums. I am a farthing so called specialist and could teach you boys a few things. I will remain to my buddies to this forum.You are missing the point of specialists.A BIG lesson for CGS as I know far more than you.
  19. I would't clutch at straws until published.

    CROWNS

    No disrespect to CGS (fascinating) I thought a couple of duffers argued over the grade whilst eating a bacon sarnie. If I wanted to discuss a proposed or purchased coin I would go to an expert on this forum. When I see a 1915 1/4d in VF slabbed and given a price tag of £35 I nearly chocked on my sunny delight. It is a coin worth £1
  22. Bob TPGS's are not the way to go. We all have our own area of expertise.That TPG experts can't shine a candle to.
  23. I'm sure CGS will have the finest known. ;)
