Are you saying you want to buy an example of the illustrated coins for the prices indicated or are they the actual coins? If they are the coins on offer then the price for the half crown seems way too cheap, that for the florin less so. So if you have been offered the actual coins in the pictures for the prices listed I would question why. The half crown looks ok, but the florin is featureless and washed out indicating it has been cleaned or dipped. In that case not so attractive as a purchase.

Yes, quite, the first 1909 2/6 would be cheap at 4x that price. The florin not a rare date but even 50 pounds would not be that bad a price to pay. I can not imagine that the seller could know what (s)he had with the piece.

Hi Rob These coins from the picture are exactly the same coins what I want to buy, they are on sale on one of Polish numismatic websites, just as a beginner I'm not sure about the prizes, I know that they selling other coins: Polish, German etc for the prizes far too high. My idea was to buy them and sell on eBay to earn some extra cash before Christmas :)

I split post on two parts, sorry for that my mistake.

Irish pennies? I think your post must have failed - all I see is the 1909 halfcrown which is a bargain at the price, and the florin which I would also suggest is cheap at £35. I don't agree that the florin looks cleaned; it does have a slightly dull appearance but it''s a nice coin.
