Would grade it as Good fine and worth every penny of £100
You are very lucky to have it
Possibly a little more than £100. This damaged specimen realised £400 hammer at LCA five years ago.

Looks kosher, and I doubt you'd see those contact marks on a wrong'un.

Whatever it is it must be pretty potent.

Yup, can't argue with that.
The reason I put up this screen shot here was, I suppose, to illustrate the extent to which I consider coinage design has lost it's way. From timeless, classic, objects of beauty, to images one might find printed on a plastic nursery lunchbox. Yes, I know, as it is with stamps, it's all about editions and 'collect 'em all' but I guess I'm just a little too set in my ways to see the attraction.

Pistrucci did.

People are actually bidding for these. Incredible.
But, oddly enough, not for this one:

And described as 'choice uncirculated' by the seller. Ridiculous.

Oh, what a f**king surprise.
I'm still smarting after being suckered in to pay £500 for a scrap value sixpence..... (er, not).

I have two Commonwealth pennies. Admittedly, neither are as good as this, but one isn't far off. I also have two Commonwealth half groats, one of which is a very nice, fully round, EF.
Maybe I should have it slabbed and rake in the oof as our cats have been reminding me it's months now since I last supplied them with shiny new tiaras.

10 hours ago, Rob said:Yes, his bullshit rating is phenomenal - and the coin a snip at only a three figure sum.
His numismatic reputation is long established, as he has been discussed on US forums quite a few times.
I Googled him. Wow, you're not kidding.

'Man'?
I'm not sure he's started shaving yet. 😁
Update: I retract. His ebay photo must be more recent as it shows him sporting face fluff.

I don't want to be thought greedy, so I'm leaving this one for you Paddy. 😂😂😂

Yes, caveat emptor.
Nothing random going on here, and the intention is clear, the fakes have been bought with the intention of selling on at a profit to people who shouldn't be allowed out unsupervised.

Each and every one of these tins of random junk has a fake valuable coin placed on top of the pile in the lower right corner.

19 hours ago, Sword said:She didn't take long. Relisted with starting price of 10k. "This coin was cancelled at 370 due to the private offers and the amount of good feedback. people saying it could worth alot .. I had a lot of them. So now it's simply going on for the price of a car then a girl will be happy"
"but I really can't say if it's genuine i can only tell you what mum told me so it's fifty fifty chance"
Fifty fifty chance? Really? That would suggest there's a 50% chance it's kosher.
So it's a car now? You may remember, when first brought to our attention, she wanted a daft amount (a million, wasn't it?) for a pound coin featuring a minor production error, because she wanted to buy a fish and chip shop.
Must've been one swanky chippy…...

Ha ha, yes. Syntax word jazz. Click your fingers hep cats.
All these rare Indian silver coins, Gothic crowns, 1933 pennies etc. 'Mum' undoubtedly experienced more than her fair share of prods from the lucky stick didn't she.

24 minutes ago, Rob said:Won't be that as it's up for a quid and free postage. The £2 with the four legged tripod would represent a loss. After fees it has to be a 10p or smaller, unless the blunder is to list something at a loss?
Read again.
She's asking a pound a pop simply to divulge what the rarity is. No actual coins for sale.

Never saw the Who but, same time frame, Stones (Mick Taylor era) at the Liverpool Empire '71 was pretty special.
Check out the Marquee film from the same tour and the '72 US films for a taste.
Then there was Ziggy's farewell tour in '73, and me touching his bare foot. With this hand, yes, this one here. Didn't cure anything, unfortunately......
