I agree, I am having real issues with my photographs lately. MUCH better in hand.

I do not post in here often but here are a couple of newbies from @PWA 1967 I am not happy with my pictures, they look far better in hand.

What Ian said ^^

Would depend on the condition. Pictures are needed to be able to help.

From what I have read, depending on the base metal it seems a furnace with the coin suspended in it will see the enamel melt and run off the coin. Obviously you would need to check the melt point of the enamel against the coin it sits on

If you want to sell the Sovereign use the sovereign group on facebook. You will get more than from the gold brokers, lower grade sovs sell for £230 up on there at the moment.

I can recommend a few trusted sellers on Facebook as well who only deal in sovereign's and are often below the bullion by post prices only being a few points above spot for moden bullion.

Some pics with my main camera. For the money I cannot complain!

Yes its the broken E

Thanks @Chingford, I am not unhappy just concerned it may lead to corrosion etc but if they are inert then I am fine. I believe he has sold them all now but this is an upgrade.

Rev:

I also had one from this seller. Could anyone offer some advise on the marks Obverse please? I cannot see any verd etc but there is the obvious discolouration. I would welcome people thoughts. Should I leave it? Bath it in acetone etc?

Hi Pete, it arrived today. Very happy with it. Thank you again, it will go into my collection and stay there a a long long time

Thanks Pete. You should have the payment now

Hi Pete, I will take it please. @PWA 1967

They have some cracking coins for sure but the prices asked are crazy for people like me at the lower end of the budget scale, for even the most common dates and coins. I have them as a favourite seller but everything is either out of reach price wise or available in similar grades raw in the UK at a fraction of the price.

I am trying to switch to type collecting but whenever something comes up with toning like that I find it hard to resist

A relative newbie

Thanks for posting the pics, links that are not obvious are always a no go in IT

I have had 5 or so in my change so far.

DO NOT click the above links. There is no way to check what they are.

Would love to see a picture Garrett. I am slowly building up a nice collection of threepence's.

Is that number correct VS? PCGS are asking for a 7 or 8 digit code.

I don't have one but have been reading up a little as I have a couple of permissions in places all ready to go. The names that seem to keep popping up are the: Golden Mask, http://thrace-detectors.com/product/277/golden-mask-5.html XP Deus, http://regton.com/xp-deus-metal-detector.html And Garret Ace 400i http://regton.com/garrett-ace-400i-metal-detector.html I don't have any experience with any of them, so please read up yourself. However those are the names that keep popping up when people ask about which detectors to go for.

I only know of 3 or 4 metal detector shops but none in central London sorry. I'm sure there is why I just don't know where. Regton are based in Birmingham and have both on online and walk in store. http://regton.com
