Query on 1860 bronze penny
Peter replied to Greaves's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
They are the same dies surely. Reverse both have trident prongs to space Obverse both have the weak topping to the O in one penny. -
Dave Run through our thread we had.I still couldn't be sure. BTW the Coincraft book arrived yesterday. Brilliant,I have several 17th,18th and 19th century Irish coppers IOM 19C Irish hammered. I will be more confident on Scottish hammered now. I will be burning the midnight oil tonight. I noticed DNW had some Scottish hammered.

Peter replied to PWA 1967's topic in TPG Discussions
I did see a raw 1865 1/4d in a LC auction .Beautiful lustred coin with an unfortunate nasty edge bump. It ended up in a CGS slab and the bump was covered up. Like Dave I would only get a Gothic florin or a Northumberland shilling graded as insurance. The replicas of these are brilliant.We have had threads and debates on these on this forum. Who are the three graders? I presume 3 dealers.I ask this because some dealers I would never buy from. -

Peter replied to copper123's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
I would but usually the weekends are fully booked.We would only use it whilst on holiday. -
Maybe try looking for a table top tripod, John. Mine cost me abut £12. Declan Could you point me in the way of your table top tripod.? Will it take a DSLR or compact only.I have both with macro.? Thanx Peter

Rob I'm interested I need to sort out what I haven't got. Will PM you
-
If you don't know your subject....don't buy it. Books and internet is there as well as as this forum. Common sense should prevail.My pockets are not deep enough to buy crap.

I will put my 40 years of collecting against any of the TPG grading companies.If you don't know your subject I think you are in the wrong game. Some muppet will charge me £30 for I know what I have is gauling. Look at some of the grading from the dealers on this site.Enough said. TPG's are a waste of air.FFS i didn't need to get my wife graded before I married her....although she was Aunc but a BU is probably a bit Ugggg
-
? No way but each to their own. I have a safe and I don't need some mug to tell me what I have. The graders probably have less experience in my field of buying.

My coin monthlies are bed time reading after Mrs Peter and myself have tried the two backed beast

Grading question on 1819 Crown
Peter replied to Paulus's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
That coin is a credit to your collecting eye. It really can't get better and a keeper. (I still haven't located a few bits of foreign silver for you) -
Try a bit of verdicare or 100% accetone with a cotton bud. John is well respected. Enjoy the coin it looks great.
