VICTORIA Silver Shilling 1851, High Grade

Recommended Posts

Not so sure about the description 'second only to the 1854'. What about the 1850 in its various forms? I didn't have a problem finding an 1851, but 50 and 54 in that grade were virtually impossible. Maybe a number were kept as souvenirs after the exhibition at the Crystal Palace

Well Rob, 1851 or the dates you mention don't come along in high grade often, that's for sure. You certainly cant buy any of them off the shelf. :)

I have to say, I DO like the 'clean' feel of your website, sound, really sharp! Good job!

Thanks m8. I keep looking for ways to improve it. Want to expand it in time.

Rob,

I was on the go the other day and didn't have time to consider your point which is of course correct. Adjusted description accordingly. Thanks.

After doing a back on the envelope search through London Coins, Ac Search & Corn archives, coins from of any of these years in any grade is very very limited.

Think I would say the 1854 is over valued against the 1850 & 1851.

We are certainly pleased with the 1851 we have on offer.

Regards

Mark
