Can you throw up a link Peter to a 1933 wreath?

Swahili is more apt

ok, i will also reserve judgement on this now, but from you initial "dubious origins" post amd price paid my initial reaction was China or Hong Kong. The patchy toning is also something that has been seen recently in Chinese originated coins, most notably a Victoria florin quite recently. Sometimes a bargain can be found but i'd be surprised if this is actually one of them. Better pictures or a scan of the coin and uploaded into photobucket and the IMG url pasted into a post can hopefully help with the surface of the coin.

DNW are trying To do 1 sale a month and The March sale already over 400 Coins listed. As Regards To the Tokens i won amd the REV figure i'm not really sure who or if it's referencing some Scottish figure, i bought them due to Dundee being my home city, PROBABLY paid too much for them but they have a quirky die problem on the arm where it seems detached

what is the weight exactly, you said it checked out fine but without giving its weight

Someone posted one a year or 2 back where the REV flower design was slightly disconnected at a point. Can't remember who it was now

From "a dubious origin" i won't hold your breath Stewie, no reply as to where it originated as yet

Won these today at DNW. D&H 3 one in silver is uniface amd the other is in copper. Dundee, Angus, my home town

If dubious origin mean china or Hong Kong then see my above post

What i'd like to know is what has the emloyment statis of the finder got to do with finding a hoard?

You can buy the gloves from predecimal.com i think. Link here http://www.predecimal.com/cotton-coin-gloves-from-predecimal-cheapest-p-34.html

At $10 you could throw it in the bin

Just saw this on the news. It said there was 40 mints in the hoard. Sounds like a bank was turned over

Lol. You'll get used to Peters posts eventually. Stick around they get more cryptic

Lol, it seemed a bit generous

As i said previously on this thread how ican a 1 point grade be found, still don't get what the difference could be between a 65 and 66

It really f**@#^g annoys me when sellers don't describe thumbprints. The spotting i can live with ?

Another update http://www.buckinghamtoday.co.uk/news/more-news/jobless-man-set-to-miss-out-on-1-million-hoard-reward-1-6570871 Crazy or not?

PCGS were obviously proving a point in paying out that sortof money but now changing their policy what sort of point are they now proving. As Stewie says, give it 10-20 years amd tears might start flowing when things start happening to the coin inside the slab. Time will tell

PCGS eye appeal has got SFA to do with MY or an actual buyers eye appeal, what a stupid assesment to bring into a grading system. Basing a small part of a grade On their choice if it appeals to THEM or not is crazy

Quarter noble probaby or Chas I gold crown

My current scratched coin was graded Fine in the Grant Francis (1920) and Lockett (1956) sales and 'almost VF' when sold by Mark Rasmussen in 2004... .. the earlier one .. Poor(ish) .. Unless you compared it to the Eddy VI shilling in the current Spink, in which case it might also make Fine! This was graded as VF by Glens in 1974 or 76 and again by Spink in their 2013 sale, its better than VF and i've upped it half a grade to GVF

Exactly Stewie

I don't think they could have either Colin, must belong to someone they know. Standards are dropping

You can also download CCGB if you have kindle or the ipad/phone app for kindle, that way you're not waiting on a delivery
