Rush of blood - won Lot334 the tower mint halfcrown ...

Rush of blood? Should that not be gush of blood? You should be bled dry at that level. :huh:

Good provenance though. I think it goes back to Trattle.

It's a pretty outstanding day for emphasising the value of a decent provenance.

As I intimated a couple weeks ago, the ryal I bought cost me roughly the hammer price of lot 290, that for a coin which is at least half a grade higher and not creased. All in all, I'm quite happy to have no liquidity today.

Nicholas. There is another one in comparable grade, with a similar level of defects at different points to this one.

I bid on lot 468 but was quite a lot under the hammer. Bit of a blessing in disguise as there are a number of coins at London Auctions that are high on my buy list.

I'd assumed that was you.

There are some mind boggling numbers here. Very important not to get caught up in the feeding frenzy.

I think the name Slaney is doing Most of the pushing and people wanting an associated coin

£15K all in for the silver cartwheel twopence. Even the unloved silver halfpenny is selling for twice what I was paying 6 or 7 years ago

I hope if anyone is bidding that you're bidding through their website, saving 3% as if it really matters at these prices anyway

Some silly prioces just because it's Slaney? Surely the 1601 shilling, looking overgraded at VF, was worth nearer £250-300 gross than £700 net??

Agreed. Discipline is so important at auction.
