PWA 1967

Does not cost anything to try Bernie. I did not want to inconvenience the sellers and have asked Spink a couple of questions on previous lots i had bought. A couple of days later the sellers have sent me a mail saying Spink had been in touch with them.

Sorry just had mails from Ian should of said Bernie.

Have you asked Spink Ian. My questions previously have always been answered within a couple of days ?.

Swanny this is what we mentioned earlier. Sellers can ask what they want and unfortunately some sellers are greedy and unrealistic. CGS give a value on each coin unless rejected (IMO maximum) ,because you know what day it is you can look at another coin to buy or make an offer ,surely recent coins dont need to be slabbed ?. One thing in fairness to slabbers is you sent your coin for an independent opinion and sometimes you or the seller may disagree. If you dont want a guide on grade/value/authentication thats ok and dont send it to anyone regardless of TPG. A few people on here i would send a picture and trust and even then as i recently have sent an expensive coin for grading as i will incur a further cost. I dont sell any and have some i wouldnt send to get slabbed due to obvious problems. You bought a cleaned coin and they told you and thats what you paid for ,what did the seller say ?. In my opinion they did an honest service and if you want to kick up a fuss tell the person who sold it you its not worth arguing. I received two back from slabbing out of a large batch this week and got an immediate refund. The seller knows i will buy from them again and i was happy that the downgrade /problem would not be found in twenty years time. I would be saying thanks to.... CGS...... SWANNY , they gave you an honest opinion rather than told you what you wanted to hear. Pete.

Its nearly as rare as the shells the guy is selling aswell

The 1946 "dot" is the least dot-like of all these features and, on an uncirculated example can be seen as just a lump of clag. See below 1946 F233 ONE' Flaw zoom.JPG Again after looking at your site i have never seen or heard of one in such a good grade.

Yes i bought one off ebay . Only a low grade so just put it away and no pictures. It was item number 291557646829. I had bid on the one in LCA ,will probably get blown out now

Hat off paul its good when they come back as you expected them to be graded and better still if graded higher.

Nice coin the top one i assume is more of a likeness and would be the one i would keep. The one below appears a bit dark ,but why you have the coin in hand your the best person to decide. To make a decision i would say a picture between the two

Better than being in Manchester though Matt

Yes good pictures Paul

Good find Jerry and yes a good reference.

Should say missing after D of F:D

Well spotted Brian.

Not to worry Brian ,think probably everyone on here who collects pennies has bought a variety at sometime from a bad picture ,hoping its one they are looking for. Only to end up being garbage . Better luck next time .

We must of all got our money back after the Derby Peter. Starkey must have had nightmares after for years top jockey but.............

Yes all race horses are auctioned in guineas

Do they sell those sunglasses aswell

I saw some pictures a lad was doing with a cheap one in the pub a few weeks ago,he had only paid a couple of pound for it and the pictures were really good.

Lovely coin.This might be a daft question but how many approximately of them were minted ?.

Sure a few will help you Brian . Maybe Jaggy will have a look .

I cant see many if any at all selling Swanny ,if they were with a 200% mark up everyone on here would be at it

Whos this CGS ?..................
