The price of a 1918KN (or any such scarcity) is not really relevant, especially as you seem to have plucked a single price guide 'out of the air' so to speak. A coin like that will go for whatever someone is prepared to pay for it, and if that someone has deep pockets then what it says in price guides can be safely ignored.

Yet on a different occasion, the same coin may go for half the amount as on the first. Your strategy - if bidding - is to bid up to the maximum you are prepared to pay for it, and to hell with the price guides.

Will be interesting to see how the London Coins one does. I believe it's the same coin that went for $1500 in Stacks Bowers earlier this year.

Well Mark looks like a nice one :) I would like something that was minted at King's Norton and I do need an original effigy George V penny :rolleyes: How did you get rid of the ghosting and the mushy obverse? ;)

Based on 20% commission that runs at around £1150, so someone i's hoping for a quick large profit. It will be interesting to see where it lands, whats LCs selling commission?

I think 10%. Good on them? it's a bit of a risk as it's gonna have to hammer at just shy of £1300 to break even.

Coming from America There will also be 5% import duty On the initial outlay so it has to sell at around £1400 to break Even. What lot number is it in LCs? Edited by azda

Ah Damian, that's why it's so good.

As has been stated Token have it at £2000, Spink £1450. Think Token are a little high. This one deserves a premium with a reverse like that.

2994. Estimate is 900 to 1200. See when you factor all that in do you still think they're trying to turn it around quickly? The Stacks auction was actually only August assuming it is the same coin.
