Hi. Can anyone give me their opinion on this halfcrown please? I purchased it from ebay recently but I have been informed that it has been an ex-mount. If it has been then it has beeen professionally repaired, right down to the ridges matching up. Thanks.

Check out the sad story on this sellers fakes 😆😆😆. Must be the best story ever. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ancient-Syracuse-Nike-Sicily-Chariot-BC-Paps-Unknown-Relic-19-4-g-part-silver/173143272666?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649

Wow, specsavers here I come!!!
-
Haha I was the underbidder, thinking that 1789 Irish halfpenny was some type of rare coin. Maybe because there is limited info on this Samsung galaxy tablet, I could not for some reason find any info on the coin. Thought I had struck it rich!!
-
Can anyone tell me what the 1789 hibernia coin in this lot is please? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Job-Lot-Of-Old-And-Foreign-Coins/253412954986?_trksid=p2485497.m4902.l9144

Just seen this 1816 shilling with what appears to be the words Mal y Pensr being sold on ebay. Is this a different variation or just my iffy eyesight? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1816-George-lll-silver-sixpence-in-EF-Condition/162889375622?_trksid=p2485497.m4902.l9144

Here is another gothic florin. The eye doesn't seem to be correct. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/gb-1886-gothic-florin-superb-very-high-grade-for-the-serious-collector/263477466216?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649

Not quite ebays worst offering, but is it unusual for the bottom of the arcs to overlap the rim of these coins? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1885-VICTORIA-SILVER-FLORIN-/202215630470?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&nma=true&si=b8BWj%2FFYvI09EkLSnPduB8JVS14%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

Thanks Chris. I will see if it will come off with soap and water.
-
What do you guys make of this 1875 QV Halfcrown which was in a joblot of coins. Weights and measures are ok but it seems a really weak strike on the 5.
-
Another one of those expensive fakes slipping thru ebay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1707Queen-Anne-Sixpence/122944039713?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649
-
Yes its fake John.
-
Lol@ hold your horses 🐴🐴 . Wasn't really wanting the coin. Just looked a bitty odd. As you say, quite possibly the bad pictures. This thread has made me paranoid! Thanks for the info. 🍺🍺
-
Cheers Rob as always your advice is appreciated. There just seemed to me that there were a lot of scratches on the obverse compared to the reverse. Also, both parts of the reins go across the horses neck, is that unusual?
-
Does this 1889 Queen Victoria crown look ok to you guys? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1889-victoria-silver-crown-Stunning-near-mint/112762107604?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649

Why such a description and mucking up the title !!
-
His title wasn't robbed from anywhere. ..Farthing penny??

Aaawww the poor wee scone desrves a sale after all that research. 😆😆

Here is another fake Kew Gardens 50p. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kew-Gardens-50p-Coin-Great-Condition/323017520095?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kew-Gardens-50p-Coin/332506153878?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kew-Gardens-50p-Coin/332506153878?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649y old place ebay. Why on earth would someone pay this much at auction for a Kew Gardens 50p when there are numerous coins for sale on buy it now for as little as £90.
-
I messaged the seller earlier. He may get back to us with a better picture.
-
I was banking on it being an R when I fired in a last second bid only to be still outbid. Its not worth £43 if its an E in my opinion. Maybe got off lightly. ???
-
Heres a sixpence i was outbid on. It seems to have R's instead of E,s in the word PENSE. Is this unusual? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/King-George-III-Silver-Sixpence-Superb-Condition-1816/332505147058?_trksid=p2485497.m4902.l9144
