    Ex-H Deane collection. I don't know who H Deane was, but he owned some very nice coins and presumably had decided that this coin was a proof. It needs to be seen in hand. The Baldwins catalogue picture doesn't show the die clash

    The Baldwin's catalogue states that "this is undoubtedly a proof" and it sold for £729-28. Ex-H Deane collection.

    Blake, you don't appear to have left negative feedback yet ?
  4. secret santa
    Done - thanks Ian.

    Very rare although quite common on the planet Vulcan, I understand.

    I was able to search on "penny" successfully. And I eventually found the coin that I'd saved to my cabinet as you describe above, saved within the particular auction. Not at all intuitive but it's there if stick at it. Still very slow, though, on my PC.

    I enjoy reading the different viewpoints and evidence but I don't enjoy personal attacks.

    Come on guys. Remember this is a Coin Forum and don't get personal. Leave it to Rebecca Vardy and Colleen Rooney.

    "never was a truer word spoken" referred to the "we'd better get used to it" rather than "What we've experienced the last week is not a freak event".
  11. secret santa
    Never was a truer word spoken because, as sure as hell, the biggest culprits are going to do nothing about it. And, with our 1% emissions, we're just p*ssing in the wind.
  12. secret santa
    Agreed (but surely you didn't go through the catalogue with a calculator ?)
  13. secret santa
    They have offered no explanation. Could it be that this approach gives them the best results ???
  14. secret santa
    Totally.
  15. secret santa
    No, at least on Ebay you can see the progressive bidding but with LCA you're completely blind, submitting commission bids and hoping that a) you'll win and b) you won't have to pay your top bid.

    It's possible that they really paid over the odds to get their first example and then want to wait a while for inflation to raise prices before they sell ?
  17. secret santa
    Hooray - that's really cheered me up.
  18. secret santa
    Yes, I was surprised at that. I've never been all that fussed about the triple F, even though it's a very clear "variety". There do seem to have been plenty of examples over the years.

    A free man in Paris ? (J Mitchell classic)
  20. secret santa
    It's been up there as no.6 for a few weeks !

    Is it the copper proof (P1502) or bronzed copper proof (P1501) ? I don't think that I have ever seen a copper proof penny with full lustre - I assume that, when newly struck, they were lustrous ?

    Did anyone on here buy the 3rd known 1860 I over T last week (Roxbury auction, Australia) ?
  24. secret santa
    I'm happy that it's rev J.
  25. secret santa
    Yes, but that was Scotland. Nicola must have sorted it !
