    It is St. Andrew, as per the D&H description on my Edinburgh token here Obverse: St. Andrew with his cross between thistles.

    1884 Half Crown

    Paulus replied to hazelman's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries

    I don't have an 1884 but my 1881 has something similar by the eye, the ear is fine - thought it was probably just bag marks Ear Eye

    I've just noticed my Chester Mint shilling does not appear to have any ties?

    I couldn't agree more!

    Just been collecting for 12 years or so now, and finding that provenance is increasingly important to me. The premium I would pay totally depends on the coin. but I'm not interested in acquiring coins from a particular collection (Brooker excepted, a focus at the moment), rather as an assurance of their authenticity. Some coins I would not buy at all without some provenance (Northumberland shillings, Charles I siege issues, wreath crowns, to name a few), and would pay a decent premium for cast-iron provenance (25%?)

    Aha so that was you eh ... the 4 groups of Kempsons Birmingham Buildings all contained tokens I wanted, but all went higher than I was prepared to pay

    Thanks for checking Rob

    Well the dealers sell them on to us don't they? With another margin on top of course ...

    Here's mine, whereabouts do you mean exactly?

    Newbie, now 8 Kempson's Birmingham buildings left to collect ... This is now known as St Paul’s Church, and a spire has been added
  21. Paulus
    Do you mean these? I have 3
  22. Paulus
    Really nice, I just have 1 of this series, they are all scarce I believe ...

    How much is their standard buyer'a premium, anyone know? I can't find it on their website ...
  24. Paulus
    It was 24% including the VAT (20% + (20% of 20%)) which might be why the number rings a bell - and might be why they have chosen this number, as it might go unnoticed
  25. Paulus
    Yes, in theory if buyers stick to their budgets then the hammer prices will be that bit lower (although I doubt it!)
