The coin is a Edward II penny struck in Bury St Edmund class 11b1 from Robin J. Eaglen collection ( lot 641 from last September DNW auction ) ... When I return home I 'll post a photo ... -
As you know the prices of coins are determined by the equilibrium of supply and demand ... The supply is more or less the same in the years while the demand , especially with the invention of internet, is increased a lot . So I think in addition to inflation what has determined the increase of prices is that in the past only few people could have the possibility to have a coin collection.

this is not a coin , it's a medal of pope PIVS XII .... I think it an unofficial medal maybe a private issue -

Happy birthday ! Buon Compleanno !! -
Indeed. Beautiful coins. Yes , beautiful coins . I've never seen agnus dei on coins of this period ... Usually is on coins struck during the 14-15th centuries .

iPost the other face .... Try to cut the images, we don't need your hand ! Regards, Matteo

Great news !!! Is Agnus Dei in the second photo ?

I see the same face of coin in both photos

This is a guide made by a professional coins photographer who works also for well known auctions using low costs materials ... It's in italian but mybe using google translate you can understand a good part . The link : http://numismaticamente.it/collezionismo-numismatico/guida-fotografia-numismatica

Yes , you are right . I remember the auction , there were some of this coins in very low conservation .... some were interesting but prices were quite high.

The conservation is not perfect but for this type it is quite good

Arrived this morning from last Gorny Morsh auction ... Mytilene or Metelin Francesco II Gattilusio ( sold as Francesco I but new studies have attributed this coin to Francesco II )
-
yes , a photo of the coin slabbed could be the proof that the coin is original
-
I honestly hate slabbed coins so , I think it is an other element for remove the box. :) Seriously I don't see any other alternatives ... If you needed the proof that it's not a fake now you have it .. Take a picture of the coin slabbed to cofirm that is the same coin before remove the slab.

I've controlled on Spink ' s Coins of England and I have to say that the portrait is very similar to Aethelred's ( especially in type 1151 ) , but others elements are different .. Your coin has a easier style , the cross is very simple and legends are shorter than normal coins .. in my little , I think that the idea of an imitation could be right ... It is a very interesting coin

Hi all In the italian forum lamoneta.it there is an interesting where a member asked us if we know why the sovereigns minted between 1985 and 1997 ( exept 1989 ) have been struck only in proof version ... Honestly none of us know the answer ( I try to see on the Marsh's book but I didn't find anything ) so Is there some member who know it ? Thanks Matteo

V.E. III's coins are the most falsificate in Italy because there are a lot of collectors and in genaral have high prices .. However It's strange because this coin is rare but not too muchu
