Hello ladies, i'm here and reading. I have to admit that i did like the coins you previously posted Stuart, i'm also leaning towards the Charles I/II coinage along with just nice specimen coinage. More Reading to be done on the farthing side first before purchasing anything plus the purse is closed until next year but u will get a copy of the book. Ps, book purchased:)

Also reported it due to the fact he relisted it and STILL did'nt mention it was a forgery

Opinions of this crown, the REV legend looks suspicious, like the Northumberland Shillings where the tops are missing off the serifs..................Use the magnified view for a better look, also the OBV looks as though it has a few cast holes? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/XXXX-RARE-1696-WILLAIM-III-OCTAVO-SILVER-CROWN-5-UK-BRITAIN-COIN-VF-gVF-S-3472-/230850856924?pt=AU_Coins2&hash=item35bfc887dc

Probably better sticking to coins

Its value is about 36k

I see Mr Platt and his mate are at it again, the one with the 9032 FB http://offer.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&_trksid=p2047675.l2565&rt=nc&item=121033458798

Both are gone

Maybe invest in an ultrasonic cleaner that would hopefully shake off most of the dirt, along with some hot water.

Good Fine, bent, possibly a soil find and cleaned?

I was walking along the road today to an appointment and saw this van parked up on the street. i could'nt resist taking the picture, but i won't be ordering any Chinese Man Fat anytime soon

It was a fecking bloodbath

Think its gone

Am done now anyway, nearly work time. Those commonwealths were a bit pricey to

Unbelievable! The two I was most interested in went for more than 3x estimate! Estimate 5-600, my top bid £1k, hammer price in excess of £1500! Think I'm gonna start collecting Charles shillings, they seem to be about right...some nice coins going at reasonable prices! On the up-side, I know where my upgraded coins are going! I got 3 lots of Chas I, but its a tough auction

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? Prices have been strong on the hammered, Elizabeth I sticks out as over top end on most. I've managed to get 3 lots but was bailing out early on

Liz I coinage selling well

What time is kick off?

Is this due out soon Chris, or how far off from Publishing?

I'm gonna have one of these this time round! What's the date range? 1800-present i think

Lmfao, how did he get away with that last one brilliant

He's got the grade about right though, wonder why the rest of it is ALL overgraded

If you read his auction, he says in there: Any Claims that the item is not authentic Must be sent in writing in 14 days. Why write that in the 1st Place if he thought the coin was original? Looks like something else to watch out for He's also in Hong Kong

like it

Love it ? Esther Rantzen c. 1983? I remember when That's Life featured a photo of an antiques dealer's van - his name was Robin Bastard. I kid you not. I wonder if he changed his name to Hugh Janus

Good god!!! Has he just sold that cos its ended? The description looks like he's using the mk.2 Ayephone (specific to Dundonians). Completely incomprehensible. One gap you could fill is "Charles II was ruled from 1660-1685 by Catherine of Braganza" He's the diametric opposite of Dave - his spelling is ok but what he says is incomprehensible! Thank you ladies Was just looking through the rest of his junk coins and was wondering what he means in his title description......Take a look and you'll see what i mean http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sixpence-George-III-1817-Silver-0-9250-VF-Tanned-/370695645263?pt=UK_Coins_BritishMilled_RL&hash=item564f2ea84f
