    • Yup, madness. I bought the Marshall coin in 2004 and I am perfectly happy with it - £87 delivered. I did have a go at the Lockett piece that was sold recently, but that made silly money,, and I like mine for the quirky shape and outrageously large distinctive tickets that came with the Marshall coins (44m dia).
    • Those are all ones I have sold in the past. I only have 2 hammered (1st issue and portrait) and 1 milled (Briot) in the collection, nothing spectacular, just presentable examples. The first issue is always relatively easy to acquire in reasonable grades, but portraits are a problem. Trust me, for all its shortcomings, the last issue was an upgrade. Briot not included as they are invariably ok and it was too big to add to the post. It is probably more difficult to find a dog than a presentable example of the milled coinage.
    • I spotted two nicely struck and very acceptable Commonwealth halfpennies at the MCF last Sunday, asking price about £225 in both cases. I bought my own one from a European auction early this year, fully struck up and  less than £180. There are nice examples out there but one on a Timeline Auction went for over £500 IIRC. Jerry
    • so I have a 1893 Shilling.... good condition 👍 I then read a reference to a 1893 small lettering but no images were provided.... following on I then found... Small obverse lettering with rare die pairing. Davies 1010A - dies 1C (the reverse type typically found on small rose 1895 and 1896 shillings with lines extending from the gaps between petals on the rose) by chance is anyone up on this reference??   
    • You’ve compiled a highly eclectic collection of coins! Great stuff!
