Wow, you are harsh. Looks pretty decent to me.

What a beauty. Funnily enough I got a nice one from Baldwins a couple of months ago, but this is superb.

for helping him out The issue seemed to be that the Grading company had limited capacity to work out a tooth from a bead . But once the gospel is set in plastic iti s hard to speak other than their written word... the worst one I had was a beautiful 1837 penny which was slabbed in fact a half penny..... you just can't get the staff....
Merry Christmas all
That is a shocker.

Hi there, I am no expert about these coins, but if that is verdigree, then it is at least partially copper, so probably not gold.

Very nice find there, and very little toning by the looks of it.

Let's face it, I would not believe it if a genuine 1933 penny came up for sale on eBay. Just so rare, surely auction would be best?

That does not like right at all, luckily.

It is a nice F139 2mm anyway.

I think that Dafuk would be appropriate for this grade as well.

The owner Richard Beale pleaded guilty to falsifying provenance. I bought a couple of coins from them in the past all relatively common and nothing super expensive, obviousely I would never know if the provence could be trusted but that goes with other dealers too.
What an idiot, i bet that he is not smiling now.

Now that would be good.

My thought exactly.

Lack of common sense maybe?

6 hours ago, oldcopper said:"the rims although equal in height to the currency coin are more raised from the fields".
A nonsense comment from LC. If the field was lower in relation to the rims which are the same thickness as normal currency, then the coin would have been struck on a thinner flan and thus be lighter.
As there's no mention of a light weight, presumably it is of normal weight and hence normal flan thickness. So any suggested lower field observation is just an optical illusion.
Yes indeed, I doubt if the fields are lower than usual.

Somewhat curiously, it's not noted by either Peck or Bramah. Gouby mentions it in passing, but as far as I can see, does not speculate as to its scarcity.
I managed to get one from Britannia Coins in August 2020, toned aEF and issue free, for £66, which struck me as a slam dunk bargain.
Not a coin you see offered every 5 minutes, and when you do, close up examination usually reveals that the seller has got it wrong, and there is no giveaway vertical line on the left side between the loops of the final 8. Some even with a large date, whereas of course all 1858/6's are small date. The genuine article seldom spotted.
I'd have to say rare, possibly very rare.
Rendall Ingram has one listed as 8/6, aunc for £275. I cannot say if it is the real deal.

Gouby recorded as BP1870Am.
Nice dot.

Nice pics Larry. The first could be a double struck E over R, the second pic I have no idea what is overstruck, the third looks like E over R, the fourth is basically identical to the first pic. Just my opinions.

They are very interesting figures from those Auction Houses. I like the idea of a puncheon with the word "onc" being made by mistake and then worn out or destroyed, but there must have been a lot of them for that to happen over 7 years, so i do not know what to think. As for the amount of 1854 florins in your survey compared to other years, then i would say it could be because the other years with "onc" in fine condition or worse, do not get sold at auction because of the much lower value than the 1854 florin. To be honest, i had not really given too much thought how this might have happened before your post. Interesting subject though David.

Was that the sale with several florin Proofs in it? Yes they were very high prices realised.
