    Interesting debate this! One question then is if post-strike, why? And there are many other examples, so not unique to this coin. I guess I am just fascinated by the 17th century, always have been!

    No that was in response to Rob's point on weight reduction

    Post Mint you think, I'm very surprised! Given the frequency of examples of this, logic suggests lines created at the mint by the machinery, or to reduce the weight of the blanks, I would have thought

    I have no doubt as to authenticity either, I don't think that has been raised! And yes the topic is just about the lines, as Rob points out they are prevelant on Briot coins

    So all those recent comments are yours Stu? OK! Definitely in the pre-strike camp myself, but still open to suggestions!

    Neither? No, they do not look deep ... what else could they be? What Seuk suggests?
  17. Paulus

    Adjustment lines or not?

    Yes, they would scrape off silver until the correct weight was achieved, quite common on early milled
  18. I'm about to post a question about one of mine in the Hammered section
  19. Don't forget the milled issues of Charles I too ...

    Quite ... extremely lazy/gullible/ignorant in this instance I'd say!

    Blimey that 'Bait and Switch' complaint is grim reading! Hope the guy got his money back, but surprised he went ahead with the deal in the first place!
