  1. Ok, so a bad example to choose, but what about the other regional mints that spink price down against the London counterparts?

    Ed I York Penny - Everyone happy with 3b?

    Thanks, Dave, much appreciated. I ask again, where is all this info. stored? In your own records, or spread out across endless articles? Will you be putting together an Edward I tome anytime soon? 👍

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    I have sympathy with collectors being caught out by genuinely good copies but, in all honesty, if someone gets caught by these primitive pewter copies I personally feel they should be zipping up their bank accounts and finding out just a little bit about the basics first. If someone turned up at the stock exchange and chucked £50 on a wild card, knowing nothing about stocks and shares, we’d most definitely call him a fool!
  4. I’ve had two lacquered coins in my life...both ‘cleaned’ up with ‘proper’ acetone, which has a negligible effect on tone or lustre, mostly no effect.
  5. Tee hee, my latest penny, King John!

    Plantagenet Coins

    Very pleased to add this John 5C to the folder. The Douglas Bayern collection, whoever he happens to be? think I’ll add it to penny acquisition and latest acquisition too! I’m that pleased!

    Henry II or Richard I penny?

    That should fly! He’s put some lovely coins on eBay recently. Can’t fathom the pricing sometimes, though? You’ll see some great coins from him for .99p bid, then something bordering melt for £250 starting bid? Strange! 😊 Good luck! 👍

    Aw, looked like a half decent coin until I spotted the crack in the flan! 😩 https://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hammered-King-John-Silver-Penny-/391980732159

    What are these strange blotches on hammered coins

    Hi Dave, have you published these stats anywhere, or are they only from your personal record?

    Good luck with the Wiltons! Will let you know re the John, I use the same user name, so you’ll probably know anyway.

    Quite amazing! Hey, D, I’m going to leave that H2 Tealby alone for now, I’m going to give that pretty John a go instead!

    If you look at the deformed right arm/leaf, and the flaw in the 8 oclock field, they are present on them all. If you search the forum using 'fake elizabeth milled' or try 'counterfeit elizabeth milled' you'll get plenty to read. Hope you didn't pay too much? Was it eBay?

    What a shoddy batch of Edward pennies at London Coins, some even making single lots!

    I’ll dig out some photos of one I’ve had, might even be the same one??

    London Coin fair

    I often see devices incuse! Takes an age sometimes to see them normally, then you can flick between the two after that!

    London Coin fair

    That’s a lovely coin, Dave, what a price! You could have 10 of those for the price of that recent CNG coin I mentioned in the Plantagenets thread.

    Plantagenet Coins

    If it’s a UK buyer, it’ll cost just a whisker under £500 delivered for this common variety! Things are definitely changing for the best Plantagenet material. I’ve only been an observer these past 2 years, but the top end pieces are definitely outperforming book. Equally, there are a lot of Lizzies that I wish I hadn’t sold a couple of years ago! Phenomenal rise in the better grades!

    Thanks, Peter, it’s certainly stacking up the votes. A recommendation is half the work done! 😊

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    Aw, bless, he’s put so much time into researching it too! I hope he hasn’t put a deposit on a holiday or car on the strength of it? 😬

    I’ll take a look...many thanks, Gaz! 👍

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    I often wonder how sellers manage to keep a 100% track record when pulling stunts like that?
