    I got an email from Sovereign Rarities about this - does anyone know when the auction catalogue will be available? Looks like some rare and interesting pieces will be up for sale.
  2. Mr T
    Did anyone get a physical copy of the catalogue?
  3. Mr T
    No images for me either - they return a 403 (Permission Denied).
  4. Mr T
    Interesting, looking forward to taking a look. Do Sovereign Rarities do .pdf catalogues or will it all just be on their website?
  5. Mr T
    Not my area of expertise but 5 over 6 looks like what it is.

    Page 22 of the February 2025 Coin News mentions a previously unknown pattern 1887 sovereign sold in 2022 - does anyone know which one this is? I have a few different 1887 pattern sovereign types recorded but the article didn't go into specifics.

    Hoping to soon - still not showing at https://auctions.sovr.co.uk/upcoming-auctions though.

    Oh, is he still working on that book? I think it was mentioned in Coin News a few times.

    1862 E in ONE over ???

    Mr T replied to Bronze & Copper Collector's topic in Confirmed unlisted Varieties.

    Upside down E seems most likely.
  11. Mr T
    I don't keep tabs on all the repairs - too many - but they're good to know for die identification etc. Agree with T over T for the first - maybe T over I for the second but the I looks short?
  12. Mr T
    Definitely a 4 over or under something - upside down 5 seems possible but what a mess they made of that digit.

    William II

    Mr T replied to SiHawks's topic in Beginners area

    No idea offhand, but https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces316623.html says that pieces were struck in the name of William, not William II, so it seems a little difficult to correctly attribute them.
  14. Mr T
    Ah, thank you! Yes, it was the Verene Collection: https://www.noble.com.au/auctions/lot?id=450665 I remember quite a few items of interest in that auction.
  15. Mr T
    Do you have a picture of the whole coin? Or will it be in the auction catalogue. I got another email looking for more consignments so hopefully not far away now.

    1889 Queen Victoria Crown + 1

    Mr T replied to Citizen H's topic in Free for all

    Not sure - but the pattern does look a bit odd.

    Lovely. Enjoy Hawaii.

    The Australian penny is the London obverse I think (the common one): https://www.coincuriosity.com/view/english-and-indian-obverse-dies-on-australian-george-v-pennies.html

    Awesome find!

    Australia Swan Dollar

    Mr T replied to Paddy's topic in Enquiries about Non British coins

    Not my area of expertise but I thought there was still a bit of interest in these - the Australian Coin Review magazine produced new ones last year I think so that has no doubt stirred up some interest. That said, I didn't know that the market was full of fakes so I'm not really sure what to look for. I understand they were die struck and pictures that I've seen show to have been of a reasonable quality.
  22. Mr T
    Nice find - these coins aren't too common, although they clearly saw some use as yours can attest.

    My Halfpenny varieties site

    Mr T replied to secret santa's topic in Confirmed unlisted Varieties.

    Could Web Archive be of use?
  24. Mr T
    Yes they finally got this back on line. Still incomplete though so I'd keep my eyes on it.
