    It might be scarce but condition is everything. I'd say it might be a £70 coin, you should try eBay

    Spink Sale Catalogue

    Thanks Richard, but yes it was the copy i was referring to.
  4. Errrrr no, yours is virtually a disc, but is .925 silver. The ebay one is overpriced as its on ebay. Take ebay coin prices with a pinch of salt. In order to get top $ for ANY coin they would have to be extremely high grade and the ebay one is'nt

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    His reply just a few minutes ago Hi there, Of course it should not be such, that the information of the same coin is so widely different. I can only be honest with you and say that I'm relatively new to British coins and that I have learned that when selling to the British market it is better to be conservative with grading. I actually overvalued a lot of my hammered coins in the early stages of launching my website (jan 2014) which resulted in no sales and angry comments! I have tried to adjust this accordingly, but I can see that I have left the coins at MA-shops unchanged. As always when selling items in different places, there will be some regional differences and as the costs (seller fees) are sometimes widely different, pricing can be slightly different. But yes, I completely agree, the listings are way off when compared next to each other. I appreciate you passing on this feedback to me and I hope my answer to you is at least some explanation if yet still very unprofessional. Hopefully you will be understanding of newcomers to the field of British coinage and refrain from talking too negatively of me or my business in the numismatic community. I assure you that I'm an honest dealer with no intention of doing anyone over. Kind regards, Andreas The Coin Cabinet

    Well heobviously hinks that no one would recogbisethe same coin as (i'm assuming) he thinks no British buyers would use a German site. In his eBay blurb he's been around 20 years, but i've only just seen him in the last 2 months on the German site and as you say Peck he's relatively new on ebay. 2 grades and 2 prices, one of which is for what i assume is for the German numpties. His eBay coin has also offers on which is to my mind quite a smack in the mouth for buyers from the German site. He also has an Eddie III groat with 2 different grades, although minimal but the higher grade is again on the German site

    I just thought i'd make you all Aware of a robbing bar steward Here's their ebay link to a coin http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261544730194?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_sacat%3D0%26_from%3DR40%26_nkw%3D261544730194%26_rdc%3D1 And here's the same coin again listed on the Muenzauktion website http://www.ma-shops.com/thecoincabinet/item.php5?id=14〈=en Check out the 2 differences in grade and price plus also read what they say about themselves in their ebay blurb. obviously a company not to be trusted and obviously to avoid in future, and just incase they decide to change the MA blurb after my email to them, here is their description there. Description England Shilling Grade: VF+ | Abbreviations Catalog: Spink 2794 Material: Silver Weight: 5.74 g Diameter: 31.00 mm ENGLAND. Charles I, 1625-49. Shilling (1638-9). Fifth, "Aberystwyth" bust, large XII. Mm anchor. Rev. Square-topped shield over cross moline. Uneven edges. Good details, sharp portrait.
