    1697 William III sixpence.

    Hi guys. Whats your thoughts on this sixpence please? Is it the rarer upside down A variety and possibly M over L? Thank you.
  2. What are your opinions on this sixpence please? Is it a RFX or REX? Thank you 👍

    Florin 1849

    This is my latest 1849 florin. She looks OK and is bang on weight and dimensions.

    I see he is selling another of these 1884 Halfcrowns ozjohn He also has an 1856 florin and it doesn't look right. Thoughts? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Victoria-Silver-Gothic-Florin-Grade-EF/333470123996?_trkparms=aid=111001&algo=REC.SEED&ao=1&asc=20160908105057&meid=fcbaf88d756044c09c0dd79e15c32407&pid=100675&rk=2&rkt=12&sd=333465385020&itm=333470123996&pmt=0&noa=1&pg=2380057&_trksid=p2380057.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci:3e66496f-352e-11ea-a1ae-74dbd180426d|parentrq:99807ba816f0a4e9226e3131ff8a1c77|iid:1&redirect=mobile

    I,m not too sure if his other coins are fake, the 3d doesn't look quite right. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Queen-Ann-Silver-Sixpence/143461503434?_trksid=p2485497.m4902.l9144&redirect=mobile

  13. Not sure if this 1826 Twopence coin is rare or not with the error. I did at one time have an 1825 Trittaniar error coin.

    Here's a guy selling multiple listings for fake kew gardens 50 pences. He has already sold a few at decent prices, granted he is not getting the full amount. I actually telephoned ebay yesterday who said they would pass it on to their fraud squad, yet nothing has been done. So obviously ebay condones the selling of fakes 😠 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GENUINE-STUNNING-KEW-GARDENS-50p-COIN-BRILLIANT-UNCIRCULATED-MINT-CONDITION/293039146693?hash=item443a7e86c5:g:yPoAAOSwcT1coQXZ&redirect=mobile

    Yes, they do look rather cheap and nasty, not something I would purchase either. Seems to be an upsurge in the sale of them. There must be a market for them but they look too new for my liking. 👍

    Do these hammered coins look like they were minted yesterday? The seller has quite a few for sale. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HAMMERED-SILVER-MEDIEVAL-COIN/372630617715?redirect=mobile
  17. Hi. Is it unusual for a 1719 George I farthing not to have a raised dot between Georgivs and Rex?

    I buy quite a lot from ebay at reasonable prices. But it never fails to totally amaze me the amount of money Lucido can get for his coins at aucton, even when there are better coins on buy it now.
