PWA 1967

The best narrow date i found ,which is photographed in a flip.

I have never looked before Terry and thank you for bringing them to our attention. I have just had a quick look on American eBay and the first few i have looked at a couple appear to be the narrow one. Am i missing something and wrong or are they the right type ? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/204589827335 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/126257870145

1861 F26 5+D ,Gouby BP1861H. Scarce in a decent grade as can be seen with the previous owners. CGS 78. £300 posted Special delivery (next week) to the UK ,PP or BT.

Yes i had already sent kip the listing from the sale ,its a CGS picture and in hand the colour somewhere between the two 👍 https://www.noonans.co.uk/auctions/archive/special-collections/162/126237/?

I am glad my Grandaughter has grown up and the Elf has gone after what it did to me. Happy Christmas everyone and all the best 😀.

Just an update on this coin and the 1854/3 that i purchased off eBay from America. I was charged the 20% on both and as i have numerous times before posted the relevant details and form etc to Border force. One thing that has changed is previously they have always posted me a cheque ,although today received a letter asking me for my bank details to pay me. Only takes a few minutes and if your charged to much ,why let them keep it.

Scarce. £25 posted Recorded delivery to the UK.

A rare site in Manchester just taken from our kitchen widow 😀.

A rare 1896 Very wide date and eight years looking at thousands to find a really good one. Gouby BP1896Ad ,NGC MS65 not attributed.

This picture that Terry put on a few years ago shows the difference well. The single has no line /s below other than the one thick one ,these are as in Richards picture the double. Compare the third picture with the top two. Regardless of wear they are easy to spot when you have seen a couple ,obviously even more so in hand 👍.

This is what i was trying to explain ,using pecks picture and Terrys to try and show the difference ,which although maybe the light and picture i am still not sure 😀.

You may well be right Rob ,i am often wrong. What made me look twice though is on the single the waves merge into the line and on the double are on top. I will put it down to the picture and my bad eyesight 😀.

Maybe its just the picture but doesnt look like one to me ?.

This is a disgrace ,i sold the coin as an altered date on facebook and the buyer re sold as an altered date on eBay. Now this clown has decided to try and have someone over as genuine. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/266487532448?hash=item3e0be50ba0:g:GIIAAOSw65xlRNRf&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAAwDKw%2Fdk1UJGufEcBK%2FHmtR34Tpcipq5SaM0Tvk4bm%2FIcXFCILu2ldfG6pQRQhp2iU7txJHl3pnNyQK7H9ecCe5dAjrWYi9BVkzsjbF3iHXjVjcYGTCjPNyF7gSQRAFEsucsR8hkFqFp7jJxhi%2FH0SIZHVGvYDlG7Hz2ftZkpihzd79jv96zRooBdjWl%2BPqHDfD8yIaHucgRcq4RzJS%2BQS7PSqtun1voQMnuBUYuxzl5dO8%2BKLoTdplXTtgqzJquKxg%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR9r4_tzyYg 👎

1854 4 over 3 ,not attributed by NGC.

F803 "PennEy" Model Pattern. Although i have had two others this one much better.

Thank you ,do you know if the Half crown was also at Baldwin please ?

Its only easy if you know what to look for ,i know that sounds a bit daft but if you dont know the indicators like people didnt with the farthing ,your not going to find a genuine one ,unless its attributed correctly by the auctioneer. Obviously thats IF there are differences which i have been told in the past there is ,although being silver never took any interest and would not know what to look for myself 👍. If the St.James crown was one and people know it was who bid and wanted it for there own crown collection ,its the only reason i can think as to why it went so high as obviously rare with very few known ,especially not still in the sets.

I must be missing something on these Crowns i know nothing about. One was in the Baldwin sale LOT 538 PF67 CAMEO £500 and was unsold without a bid ,so why someone would pay £6K for one a grade less i have no idea 😀. More i think about it and although still expensive maybe it was a 1953 VIP proof from the set and people knew the indicators which i have been told before are different ,like the Farthing and penny. I dont have a clue about crowns or silver but the only explanation i can come up with and although still expensive seems more reasonable for a crown collector who has know interest in the rest of the set and will be very few sold individually.

The 1953 Halfcrown i could not believe and then saw this crown sell at St.James. Surely it will all end in tears as the prices seem ridiculous and makes me wonder if people are actually buying them.

One i havent had before ,although i must admit i have never looked for one 😀. Thanks Larry 👍.

Must have looked at hundreds / thousands to find one in a decent grade for type 😂 Gouby BP1895Bb Wide date.

Quite a lot of pennies in the next Baldwin auction. https://thestrand.com/auctions/calendar/list#/auctions/5cec2514-7637-4f39-b576-3be0db39d6ad?q=penny&department=BDW&lot_status=all&auction_uuid=5cec2514-7637-4f39-b576-3be0db39d6ad

Yes its definitely the same coin ,i bought it after the Auction.

A couple of new ones for a date run i have been putting together since selling my others. 1893 and 1904 ,both hard years to find so nice.
