Queen Anne VIGO Five Guinea coin
Nordle11 replied to Michael-Roo's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Would've been good but have a meeting in half hour Good to use the chat then too -
Not a problem, hope you find what you're looking for.
-
No problem, it's a slow day at work sorry that wasn't the right one.
-
There is also one example in the British museum as per this PDF. Search for '76' and the info is there. Seems to me that you're going to struggle to find a value and that you will get quoted wildly different prices (if you're selling the coin that is), because it's pretty rare.

A quote from an article; From here. This was published last year and the person who has written it is a collector of these. He has also left his email at the bottom of that page, perhaps it would be helpful to get in touch with him and see if he has anymore information?
-
Here's more info for you. Seems like it's probably too rare a coin to have much info on value, unless you can find old auctions. Link

I tell them 'just a minute he's right here, I'll get him for you', then leave the phone on the side and carry on with whatever I'm doing until they're gone. -
He, funny place to land! I'd go die wear too, unless you can find some design specs!

I do see just one rivet on the 2007

That's some good coining right there, Brian. Keep it going!

1860 Bronzed Proof Penny - Photos
Nordle11 replied to cathrine's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I want to clarify, I would send the coin back if I was buying the coin from the picture and received the coin OP has, because the price (I am assuming) was based on PCGS photos which definitely improve the overall look and state of the coin and therefore the value. The actual coin itself is, as everyone says, stunning and a keeper if there's not much in it between the 2 then no matter. -

Do as they say and not as they do seems the rule there. I mean they do look at coins in a LOT of detail so could be something we can't see with the naked eye? I don't know, but IMO a coin with die wipe lines on should definitely grade higher than a coin cleaned by someone outside of the mint if the actual grades are exactly the same. -

For what it's worth, I think your pictures convey the actual coins very well and would much prefer seeing them as they are than with the 'improvement' filter applied -

I'm in agreement with azda, it'll probably cost you less too as Atlas do seem to be in the upper echelons of the pricing band. -

I wouldn't go as far as not described because the PCGS picture shows those faults, however if I'd bought the coin based on the PCGS picture, then received a coin looking more like Catherine's pictures, I'd return it too. -
A nice mix of toning on all of them Think I'd agree with Ian, 3d does it for me.
-
My thoughts too, however wouldn't tooling drop the weight? According to NGC it's 9.5 grams, although I think they've rounded that up. The edge is real ragged too, and so many dents and dings all over it.
-
Forget the price, I know that it's ludicrous, no-one will pay that. I'm interested in if it's genuine because it doesn't look very good.. but it's been slabbed by NGC..
-
Second opinion on this? Doesn't look very legit, and weight is more than it should be (but they could have used poor scales/rounded up)

Penny Acquisition of the week
Nordle11 replied to Paulus's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Definitely a factor in it, but 120k 1951s against 14 million 1949s, I just don't see it. I mean, I notice 1951's more than 1949's, because it's much more valuable and dealers will probably give it priority compared to a 1949. I was just curious.
