Thanks Rob, if is isn't a 8 over 7 its still a very nice example. If i remember I will bring it Sunday.

Reviving an old thread..... As the title, is the overdate obvious under magnification? I just picked up another 1758 described as a 1758/7 but would welcome any tips on spotting the overdate or should it be blatantly obvious?

That is the major reason I want one or both. I think they are rather nice to look at regardless of the price fluctuations and I feel it would be a nice addition 😀

I haven't really been tracking the price if I am honest but I am looking for an example of each to sit in my collection for a good 20 to 30 years providing I don't get hit by a bus! It does seem the graded ones carry a stupid premium though.

Is anyone aware of any 1989 half and full sovs available apart from on ebay please? I am potentially looking for 1, maybe both examples.

Thanks for the feedback. The fields actually look much better in hand and this was broken out of an ANACS slab before I bought it. At the time I felt that it had been undergraded as did the seller (obviously) but also the guys from Baldwin's on the next table.
-
As the title. Following the discussion on Azda thread can I have your opinions on grade please on this half crown. I dont mind slabbed coins and i am thinking of submitting it.

I would say it's Aef? Maybe ef? Some wear on highest points but has bags of eye appeal.

After not seeing one in my change I bought a set to store away a while back.

How the heck did they do that?!?

I picked up a lot today as well

Do yourself a website on wordpress. Extremely easy to do and as long as you remember to upload the photos you can keep track and compare grades etc of what you have v what's on offer. Mind it won't stop you buying duplicates. I have 3 x 1911 and 5 x 1923 half crowns....

Thanks! I wish that was really the case, I am still make regular mistakes, normally spur of the moment purchases. I really need to try and curb my spending and focus in on 1 or 2 particular coins to fill type gaps in higher grades.

There are a few on facebook complain about the gold proofs as they seem to have a residue on them.
