[scott 144]

I'm going for not an open 3, but could be wrong.

Put me down for "Not" an open three, but I hope I am wrong!LOL!

[pies 33]

David, That is the best example I've ever seen! Mine is not nearly as good.

Never mind, if it had been, we would all have been expecting a beer.

Never mind, and as you say, keep looking. You just never know when your luck will be in

[davidrj 194]

In a similar vein to the original thread, have i just bought an 1897 O'NE penny ??

7 bidders so I guess I wasn't the only one to suspect it was - need to wait for the postman

dunno, looks like a high tide possibly though

[Gary 7]

dunno, looks like a high tide possibly though

It is, high tide Freemans 148 or Gouby BP1897C

I like the description "EXC GRADE COIN LUSTRE VINTAGE"

What looks like a dot is going to turn out to be a fleck of dust but a high tide 1897 for £11 is also a result.

you are right! just shows we see what we want to see - I had a squint at it because it had attracted a couple of bids - convinced myself it was a O'NE which I haven't got an example of - never looked at the shield or sea level

back on Ebay correctly described then, not as good as one I already have

Horrid bog standard 1897 penny arrived today, definitely not the coin illustrated I hate ebay some days

But if you got something that was other than the advertised picture, is there not some sort of complaints/refunding procedure to be gone through...?

Indeed there is, but you still won't be getting the coin you wanted.
