Well the P in PENNY definitely helps as I always thought the tide should be higher than the folds on the robe, but from Ians picture that's not always the case
-
Thanks Terry and Ian, wasn't intending in a bid, more highlighting the fact I didn't think it was what the label states. Let's hope nobody goes stupid money on it or they'll be very disappointed
-
Here is the 1897 in question, the tide is clearly below the 1st fold of the robe
-
The reason I question is that American TPGs do make mistakes on British Pennies, the seller won't argue because the label states that it is what it is and shouldn't be argued with if it comes from a large TPG. I once corrected Notheast numismatics who had a slabbed 1895 2mm, but it wasn't and I pointed it out to them, they eventually agreed with me and said they'd contact the TPG about it
-
I was always under the impression that the tide on the 1897 had to be above the folds on britannias robe for it to be a high tide?

-
Is it me or is this NOT a high tide? 321939581443 Same seller has an 1841 halfpenny saying its FDC but it's graded at CGS85 which is choice UNC according to the CGS list of grading numbers. FDC is proof but it doesn't look proof to me Same seller again has an 1893 penny graded from CGS and does look like 3/2 but how CGS would have missed that I've no idea

Here's an open 3 for you David 401036500352

Explains alot*country*cottage*interiors* previously, that was his wifes eBay name, he took it over after he was Mentioned in these boards an awful lot for a few things such as dipping and overgrading etc etc etc
-
Yup
-
Yes it had me smiling as well Richard. The orb in the REV is worn to death and there has been dipping involved, you can see the staining left over. I loved the "razor sharp detail" blurb in the description
-
I bet someone is going to be spitting their afternoon coffee out. 111840279589 description price compared to achieved price. Ebayers have finally woken up
-
Initially I would contact the seller and explain that tape is a no go, if they then offer to take it back I wouldn't leave a neutral, I' probably not leave a feedback incase I got carried away

Top picture for me also -
I'd give the Sov much higher at about CGS 70-75
-
I'm sure you can find the crown on it's own elsewhere for far less than £300. This is what i'd call a kiddy on set which is obviously made up to get rid of low grade coins at OTT prices.

Seller states "it seems too thick and selling as a copy"

Isn't horse racing still called the 1000 guineas? Or a particular race -
Not sure about the ipad Paul, but it does get good results especially when trying to take pictures of coin sets, point and click, job done
-
I find the ipad takes a better picture
-
I assume it's the Sovereign type weight Rash. I wonder what it's actually made of.

Assurance has gone out the window just now as a near perfect fake slab with a fake coin was found http://www.coinworld.com/news/world-coins/2015/11/california-dealer-discovers-fake-krugerrand-in-fake-holder.html# What intermediate coin buyer is going to dispute an NGC slab, or even a bullion buyer?
-
Cost of coin + cost of slabbing + ebay & paypal fees = the mark up. Slabbers think that if a coin is in a graded holder that will mean an easy sell at whatever Price it's listed at, but what they don't seem to realised is that only the finest will realise that premium, the fact CGS is a British targeted market only will make it equally difficult to sell As there's not a huge following of their slabs or slabs in general in the UK market.
