Let's See Your Copper Coins, Tokens, Or Medals!

!791 Hull William III Conder Token, newbie -

Who in their wildest dreams would grade this as EF (CGS 60) and give it a valuation of £3000? Unless I am missing something??

Paulus replied to newcoincollector's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
It should be .500 silver so maybe write it off as a fake, we know not why! Genuine high grade examples of these are available for a few pounds ... -
Welcome TP, keep any mistakes to a minimal financial impact and you will be fine! Just run things past this great Forum until you are confident to go solo! Exactly how I started 9 or so years ago

Newly Acquired Halfpennies
Paulus replied to cathrine's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Indeed so, but they don't often get much of an airing whatever the reign - unless they are yours or Conder tokens! -
