    Henry III or Richard I Hammered coin?

    What did it go for? 85 euros
  2. Spotted this little hammered piece and it's been attributed as Henry III, i'm not a hammered man, but this coin has some appeal to me for some reason, perhaps because the detail of the OBV looks great compared to some i've seen. I've only got Spink to go by, but i'm not so sure it's Henry III S1355, it looks more like a Richard I s1347. Can any of you hammered men ID it correctly? Forgot to mention, it's 1.38g
  3. Already have a buyer Huss, just waiting on the word from Chris

    Henry III or Richard I Hammered coin?

    Thanks Rob, is it a decent grade, am no use with hammered, it looks decent, but could be any grade to me. Oh more importantly, what sort of price would i be looking at paying for it, not wanting to pay over the odds either. I'm a Scotsman lol
  6. State of preservation combined with length of the reign boosts prices. Why are the 1854 victoria silver coins rarer considering she was on the throne for 60 odd years? You could ask yourself the same question regarding Edward VIII coins, why are all 5 figures and above consodering he was on the throne 8 months.
  7. The same coin in better condition might have made that money, but yours is not in that better condition, hence you won't see that price for yours.
  8. UNC, i'm selling (joking ladies)
  9. PCGS don't bodybag, but they note it on the holder. Everyone had a Problem with my PCGS authenticity of a British coin, so this way a British dealer does the authentication and then at least we know its kosha, then the grading by PCGS, Win Win all round.
  10. Chris is going to authenticate then when ut comes back probably slabbing, all being kosha that is
  11. If the one at the last London coins auction can fetch 2k i'm scared to think what this could do.
  12. I've spoke to our leader Chris Perkins and am sending it to him in Germany Tomorrow. I also saw the lines, but Let's Be honest, i have'nt Seen one so good. Pix were crap, had to take them inside As it was raining, so hopefully 2 more tomorrow if its clear. I was thinking it was more "lightly cleaned" as There's no shine associated with buffing
  13. Lol, pix in the morning Mr Cynic, it came after i Left for work, patience obi wan kenobi
  14. Just spotted this, my wee heart. Grade was AU, anyone else with an opinion on grade. It will be for sale, by me

    CGS grading service

    That is an interesting remark as I was just thinking of getting a few world coins slabbed by them (PCGS or NGC) but I was actually wondering if it would be best to split them up i.e. do they British ones here and the world by PCGS in America. The mind doth boggle... Geez, anyone listening????????? PCGS IS IN EUROPE, why send to the States now? MEIN GOTT!!!
  19. I have 2 1853 Halfpennies, both good grades, i'd be inclined to say UNC, but one of them looks more coppery than the other, so just wondering if one is perhaps proof or just a really early strike. I know what people have said about sharp rims etc, but i just can't make mymind up about it. Advice appreciated
  20. I use Nero lol, but thanks for the tip
