Oh thanks everyone I have just noticed this thread !! Thanks very much ! Hope you had a good one Peter ! Happy Easter everyone !
-
Yes it's a nice coin ! If it were a middle grade no doubt the lads could help. There's not much in it with the higher grades .......
-
Nice coin regardless. I like that obverse, even if Georgey did not !
-
Welcome John ! What a fantastic 1827 sovereign you have there, thanks for showing us. I have but one sovereign, a Victoria Young Head Shield sovereign, which I like very much. Cheers Garrett.
-
Good to see you are on the mend Peter. Rob - bloody interesting coin !

Happy Retirement Day Bagerap
Garrett replied to azda's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
Have a good one ! -
Yes - getting old and slowing up a bit
-
I LOVE slabs I normally buy one every Friday afternoon . To get back on topic most coins have photo's available so caveat emptor. cheers Garrett. PS - sorry couldn't help myself; 'slab' is colloquial for a carton of beers.
-
Yes welcome aboard mate ! This is an excellent forum. Very friendly and heaps of good information. It's my 'coin club', and refuge from the hubbub/hectics of daily life. Your godless florin is better than mine, which is also cleaned (purchased in my youth) so hopefully we can stay friends when a nice one pops up in an auction somewhere . cheers Garrett.

Poll: Your favourite Elizabeth II portrait?
Garrett replied to damian1986's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I don't mind the latest although I didn't vote for it. I wonder if her majesty will look younger the more we (or rather you lot) rub her up a bit. Those wrinkles might be the first to go....... -
thanks MH ! Looks to be a nice coin and would fit in my collection. Although I have no idea what a fair price would be, and I sure as hell not going to bother go looking. cheers Garrett.

Odd Color of Copper Penny
Garrett replied to RLC35's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
okay thanks. Half looked like 'R' over 'B' or something .... -
Odd Color of Copper Penny
Garrett replied to RLC35's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I must admit I can't add much to the topic. Nice coin though. Is there something going on with the 'R' in Victoria ? -
Thought I would start a thread on the upcoming Noble sale. Catalogue not up yet at www.noble.com.au I was just flicking through the highlights though, and saw a gorgeous Anne farthing. While try to attach a screenshot. I saw her first. Mine, mine , mine !! Just kidding, I stick with the one I have. cheers Garrett

Cool John. Let us know (and a pic or two) if you get the coin. Next time I have a day off I might visit a few shops and see if it is still around. There was a nice one at Colonial Collectables for 4k NZD that was on the website for ages last year, so 3750 AUD for one aU sounds about the going rate. cheers Garrett.
-
No worries you're more experienced in this field than me. I was just calling it as I saw it. cheers Garrett.

If you search through this forum there is one or more threads with other indicators for the Gothic crown. I would say IMO the price of these and the 'thumpers has been beaten down due to the concern about fakes. Good luck !
-
Hi Vicky I was just comparing the image on the screen with the image from "Grading British Coins" on my phone. I didn't think either side made it to the EF picture in the book, especially the obverse. Did you grade against the same book ? cheers Garrett.
-
IMO the obverse is not EF and neither is the reverse although it's a touch better.
-
Nice 1860 Penny there ! Good to hear Peckris is okay.
-
I broadly agree with Paulus, around VF but warrants a closer look. Some parts of the obverse look VF+ but some others not so sure.

Con man - Watch out for this one, bounced cheque
Garrett replied to Chris Perkins's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
okay all good logic. Thanks for the replies. -
Con man - Watch out for this one, bounced cheque
Garrett replied to Chris Perkins's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
And that is fair enough too. Do you get many cheques these days ? I can't think of any reason I would want to get a chequebook. cheers Garrett. -
Nothing wrong with a bit of a listen to music for sure ! I had a rec day (holiday) yesterday (Friday). It pissed down rained all day in Brisbane and I spent a good deal of time listening to Dire Straits covers on YouTube. There is some fantastic stuff out there
-
yes that's better ! Looked like the defect may have been at 2 o'clock on the obverse in the first pic, but it is gone now. Nice coin.
