    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    Lucky that we can still have something to easily differentiate the fake at this moment.

    1919 kn forgery

    Yes, too good to be true, and i always believe i won't be that lucky to buy a bargain piece like that.

    A comparison of two auction houses

    Richard is the main contact point for all email communications, while name of Guy is only seen on doing the bank transfer, according to the experience before.

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    Surface of the coin is rough....but the most curious is the seller already sold 15pc, n have 8pc on sale. It's not often if not rare you can have so many same year Gothic Florin in collection.

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    Yes, there will be much less trouble if all fakes are so obvious.

    2023 Royal Mint Unc. sets

    I also initially think the same like the wording "束" before, however it is a bit different after close look.
  10. I also use £80-100 as benchmark to bid through easylive. if i guess my winning lots exceed that sum, i will pay for the £3. Back to Coinery case, i remember there is no flat £3 option, and bidding through coinery website is less expensive than easylive portal. However, i am not sure about this now, coz i changed to bid through Coinery website since 2nd auction held by them because of the auction premium issue.

    Halfpenny ID check

    Interesting one, nice one found.
  12. Nice, so that you saved few percentage off👍.
  13. You bid through easylive, so that there's internet surcharge?

    "onc" tenth florins

    It is a very nice gothic florin, rare to see with such prooflike field.
  15. So quick to receive it, very nice 👍
  16. Me too, this is the only coronation coin acquired so far due to the same reason. I'm considering to add a bullion 2023 sovereign to mark the coronation year collection.

    Storage of proof coins

    I think about the same when i first use it years ago. The one I'm using is in form a small box filling with silica gel, and it is said can be stored with food together, that's why I give it a go. However, I'm not 100% sure it is problem free or not, so would much appreciate as well if someone can advise if it is safe to keep with coins.

    Storage of proof coins

    I also won't consider to slab my coins, unless it's going to put up for auction. I will keep it in capsule to try to protect it from scratch etc, and then in an air tight box with desiccant, coz humidity is too high in hong kong.
  19. i bookmarked it in my cell phone, tablet, PC for reference as well. Superb works.

    "onc" tenth florins

    Thank you David for the stat analysis. I didn't think about the reason behind, but i agree that it is not uncommon in various auctions. I didn't own any onc example so far and was offered by a local dealer before (forget which year it's), but did not buy due to price. Let me visit again later if it is still there.
  21. Thanks for sharing the info
  22. If it's a friend's request n have spare time, most people are willing to offer assistance. However, if it is for commercial purpose, no way for free of charge...business is business.
  23. Glad to hear that, wish everything is smooth n alright, and replacement is fine👍.
  24. Yes, that's very good, n agree with u, the pricing is a concern.
  25. Sorry for that, but this kind of quality is seems the new normal of this big n rich organisation. There are always loads of complaints in other forums re RM products, which maybe down to too many products launched. Comparing with Perth Mint, for example, quality is miles away. I'd opt a replacement, as i really like the oz reverse design. You may contact RM first to lodge a formal complaint n trying to seek for a guarantee of much better quality replacement before sending back. Wish you good luck and have favourable feedback.
