Rare Groats Setting Records at DNW Today
VickySilver posted a topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
As most readers are likely aware, DNW had a sale today - which is still ongoing in fact. The rarer Vicky (well, Billy too) fared rather well with aggressive buying evidently by the Japanese contingent. The gold Willy 1836 went for 8.5k pounds, as did the finer of the 1837 Vicky proofs. The lesser of the 1837s still fetched 3200! Way out of my league and so bowed out. The 1842 & 1853 proofs went around 8 & 1200 by memory; there also was an 1838 proof at 1100 and a circulated grained edge 1838 that went near to 400 - I just found not see this as all the special given that there are some very proof-like appearing currencies available to the market on occasion. I was surprised that the 1852s did not do better at around 460 by memory. The 1853 two currency lot went for 700 - and I let it go also. Possibly the collector buy of the day was the 1857 lightly circulated specimen that went 1900, the THREE 1862s went for 1300-1800 which were prices I thought fairly reasonable (though I left them alone). All in all, definitely the best collection of groats I have ever seen.
