Me too

Don’t take my word for it, though, I’ve only ever had a few proofs in my life, ever! Let’s see what everyone else says, they’ll definitely know more than I do The fields are ultra vulnerable to oxidisation but, when you come to think about it, there are a huge number of Maundy coins and proof sets that are really beautiful in their toned states! I still think I’d want to keep them ‘fresh,’ if you have a choice that is?

I can’t imagine for a second that a cabinet would do? I’d be thinking you’d want these airtight? I would!

I’ve just had my first look over your website…that’s a phenomenal body of work. Comprehensive doesn’t quite capture the immensity of it! Well done that man!

Thank you, appreciate that

Thank you, I really appreciate your insights. With this being a 6+G do you happen to have the Freeman number to hand? I never dreamt I’d be buying such coins ever again, so have long since parted with the book.

Bought one of these today, just so someone might talk to me. A common date, but an OK grade I’d say

Bloody good, though, and still working ‘blind’ on the other details

I’ve always placed my favourite coins into coin flips and stored them in wallets, but this clearly stops any further toning. In the past I’ve tried every little trick in the book, eggs, liver of sulphur, etc., but I’ve found that nothing really works that well. At best a uniform and ‘transparent’ grey! SO how long to tone a cabinet coin, anything that speeds the process along? What’s your experience/examples? I’m guessing a good clean with acetone to remove any grease that may be protecting the surfaces from the atmosphere would help? The below coin is my example of something I know would look so much better with a nice tone! It’s a really large, solid flan, with good surfaces, it should take a tone well…but will I live to see it?

Well, eight weeks so far has given me this! I’m really pleased with them and will carry on a little while, yet! Much better than my phone pictures show…I SO wish I had my old camera set-up!

Everyone should have a nice example of one of these. Such lovely coins!

Oh, Lord…how baroque

Thank you still very obvious, though, in the finders images, that the proposed ‘bell’ PM is actually the ‘A’ of SPINA

Lol…a PM ‘Bell’ obverse Penny with what is clearly a coronet reverse. I truly hope it wasn’t the experts at the PAS that called this one? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/125886353408?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=9JbxkjgCRKa&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=qduwzHkQTWC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Roddy catalogue info required for Spring 2002
Coinery replied to Rob's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
100% agree…verification of the written AND spoken word a must at all times! Do you already have an example earmarked? Looks like it’ll cost you a ‘pretty penny’ to acquire one when/if you do! -

Ahh, I see…I was responding to the ‘alternatively DNW 68 lot 320…will do for comparison!’ I assumed from that that you didn’t have the info. Good luck with the project -
