PWA 1967

Whats that in £ Bob as in my opinion would be £350 Max its not as if they are scarce. I have one cgs 82 it might not be so far off grade wise and possibly not as good (close ) but paid £230 (already slabbed) and cgs say £350.

Its definately the same coin,its not like there are hundreds of them. it does make you think about buying a coin from the pictures from America and after all the fees involved on a coin of this value weather you would be happy when it arrived . Atleast with the Spink photo they dont hide anything.

Comparing them both and having purchased coins from Spink i would imagine somewere between the two. Which would still be a really nice coin

Thats a lovely coin bob .......But the other guy who wants 2K ...

Well another couple of hours spent and thrown some more in for people who wanted them. Quite interesting looking at old prices from dealers..........Nigel goldman as an example,dont know if anyone bought of him but used to see him in spain all the time(although dont think that was a good thing ). Will post in the morning and found some more penny ones Matt but give me a few days to read them myself .......possibly scan. I have found one 7th March 1990 that has about 14 pages just on farthings . If a farthing collector wants it just PM me your address and will post in the morning FOC. Pete.

I think its the same coin and well found Richard

Thanks Dave........although thats gone over my head ,probably one of the reasons i never passed any exams

Sorry to ask but not my thing Why was the counterstamp put on please ?. Pete.

Yes agreed Ian,although could go on forever Another pointer on copper is the high points having a silver colour is a give away that its had a good rub

As an add on some coins show signs of things that are due to storage issues and one side a different colour. These have not been cleaned but will show as greenish colour /lines, marks and oxidisation mainly with copper . Suppose this needs a thread of its own but signs of blue on bronze or sheen from laquer are better looked at twice.

More often than not Ian from my limited experience a cleaned coin (on bronze) will show even colour and shine that is different than lustre . Also the letters maybe different as not cleaned inside/around etc. Overall though the coin will be shiny if thats the right word or dull but all the same colour. Alternatively you will spot small patches were the coin has been worked on specific parts. Under 20X magnification and gently moving the coin will show residue or signs such as rubbing ,minute scratches. Hard to tell from pictures sometimes You will also notice dark patches or alternatively the coin being a pink colour were it has been treated with an acid based product (vinegar)or patches from something like verdicare. Pete.

I dont think its cleaned for what my opinion is worth

As i dont drive due to medication going to send them all on monday as the post office is a couple of miles away i dont mind the walk but not with all these. So will need a lift to take them Pete.

Will post you ten if you want Ian but all the recent ones i have already thrown away

Most of the 1905,1906 are weak to the reverse Mike even if BU.

Yes thats why i checked Matt and was definately the same coin .

Will see what i find Matt as i package the others up and will post to your Dads if i find any although the main ones i took out to keep

After David had been messed around i got intouch with the seller . I told him i would collect the coin and pay cash and we agreed a price He explained he would be in touch on his return from holiday. A week or so later he got in touch to say he had sold it for £1,500.00............So yes its b*****ks

As i said i dont have a clue untill i take them just a guess

I have never sent any before but happy to post and tell you when i take them to the post office . Would of thought ten would perhaps be about £8 but honestly not got a clue

After working my way through a large box i bought from Rob RP coins i am now happy to get rid of them. Hundreds and just want to cover postage as they are all over the flat. Will leave this up for a week then drop them at the local charity shop. If anyone is after something specific month/year or wants 10/20 for interest will just charge postage. Pete. I

Strange but as of yesterday my messages i now get notifications of via email after not doing for a couple of weeks

That coin was mine Matt and made me check the colin cooke photo which is were i bought it. Definately an early strike and although really nice its not proof.....remember talking to Neil about it why in his office

Shows how much i know looks UNC to me and a lovely coin

Not a recent purchase but one i have not posted before. 1847 Def Far Colon Pete.
