    • isn't that where Bowie played his final Ziggy Stardust gig (and hadn't told his bass player and drummer)?
    • the left hand coin - no brainer
    • I do have a wash a coin disorder🤔 however I don't polish them, obvious circulated damaged ones get slotted in until like on this occasion they get rotated and then the lesser quality will finds its way onto ebay,  its quite therapeutic and if I'm honest this should of taken place ages ago...I just didn't have the time back then....many thanks for the assistance I can mull these things over and on occasion ended up keeping duplicates....I sure I'm not the only one..👍
    • For me it would depend on whether the brightness indicated by the one on the left is a result of polishing to within an inch of it life. I can live with faults if the coin is sufficiently rare, but it isn't. Personally, I would bin (sell) both and put the proceeds towards something better, which would be easy given the number extant. The detail visible has been covered by the previous posts.
    • You might know, but that 1693 shilling is the 9/0 variety, also signalled by the distinctive reverse die break. I had one of those once, it's not that rare though.
