Me too, all five. Three shillings (1842, 1852 and 1856) and two gothic florins (1860 and 1883).

[PWA 1967 1,841]

Nine bids and the underbidder on six 

Not to worry must of been picked up in the room .

[PWA 1967 1,841]

Another i bid the same amount and did not get looking at the invoice 

Negged......... 

[Nordle11 564]

Pipped to the post! Which 3 did you win?

[PWA 1967 1,841]

Only got two Matt will wait until they get slabbed or rejected 

[1949threepence 3,366]

I got pipped to the post on all 4 that I bid on, this time. Disappointing. 

Might have to consider going in person next time, or next time there's something decent on offer.

 

[PWA 1967 1,841]

Forgot i had even bid on one until just went to pay the invoice.

Bought lot 2520 and dont know why,just a daft bid.

Might pass an hour.

Hopefully it wont end up in the bin

So got three 

[PWA 1967 1,841]

Got to pay  a mate who bid for me aswell.

Also bought a 1826 rev B thats already slabbed ,things getting better 

[secret santa 2,013]

I hoped a forum member might get that lot and share the research info (please)

[PWA 1967 1,841]

Not a problem,but might get me looking for a couple of upgrades ,which you might have Richard 

 

Pete.

I had a great day,  got the N over N sideways, lcw under foot, nice  4F,  E over P and lots of lesser coins, and paid over the odds for the books but I wanted the Jerrams volumes.  Also bought the 1879 with the 'shuttle' above the lighthouse . 

Great to meet Richard, pretty in pink,  sad not to see Pete but Semra said he had not turned up. 

Nice lunch in Spoonies between the penny sections.

And hot chocolate in Starbucks on the way home.  Perfect day.

The 4F was a beauty. Good haul Jerry.

I got outbid on all 4 lots I really wanted 4F, 1863 3 over 1, 1909 1 over tooth and the 1922. They fetched well over what I would've liked to pay.

2378 - Capped at £2600 - Fetched - £3000
2395 - Capped at £1300 - Fetched - £1400
2474 - Capped at £1500 - Fetched - £1700
2484 - Capped at £2900 - Fetched - £3800

On the plus side I did win 10 minor lots.

It was good to meet Prax in person at the auction - he showed me a very nice 1934 penny with missing waves which was new to me - any chance of a pic Prax ?

Interesting i have looked at quite a lot in search for a really nice one.

Most are stuck reasonably well on the reverse ,so would also be keen to see a picture Prax.

Was it both sides Richard or just to the left as seen a couple like that ?.

[Nordle11 564]

Yes would love to see a picture please Prax.

Just to the left, Pete. Bernie's now sent me a pic which I'll post if Prax doesn't beat me to it.

Pleasure's all mine. Sorry Rich I've given it to CGS for grading so I cant get you a picture. In the next few weeks it should show-up on their database and I'll post the UIN then.

[Nordle11 564]

This will probably mean that they open a new 'variety' in their population report for this. 

[secret santa 2,013]

Prax reminded me that there was a 1934 no waves in the James Workman sale which I'd forgotten - pic below. I should add it to the new Freeman appendix.

[Nordle11 564]

Thanks Richard.

[Nordle11 564]

Is this coin the same one Prax had or there have been 2 found now?

[secret santa 2,013]

I don't know.

I have two Matt, so there are at least three.   Terry    p s  have looking for years though

[Nordle11 564]

Thank you Terry, another one to keep an eye out for then.

Easier checking this year for missing waves than the 1967/1966, there are just too many of them to check!!
