Lucky yours is grey then

Thought it was as good to post here. Mark rasmussen has a large collection of shillings / florins in his new list. Might be of interest to people reading this thread. Pete.

Well, that might be a tad optimistic. I got the last off metal strike from London coins that graded out at PCGS65 and was about 250 quid by recollection. Also bought an OMS 1981 penny OVERSTRUCK on a 1956 6d where the original date is legible under the overstrike for about 400....If truly copper-nickel I would guess about 100 or so might be the best to expect with a dealer offering half that. I'm not a dealer at all, and collect these avidly but like others want a top condition piece...

I think I have said this before about this coin "It is a beauty" and for me sums up what coin collecting is about. Wish I had it.

Even though the company formerly known as CGS said it was cleaned, i'm still a fan of this coin, cleaned or not

Yes but we all know you're a special case, Mike That is strange though, I've not heard that one before..

Always enjoy seeing this coin, in a thread ranting about CGS or not the toning is just amazing.

Sod CGS....that is a stunner and would grace any collection.

That Gothic Florin is a beaut, and I'm v jealous, I can't decide if that or the EVII Florin is my favorite coin.

Another 1877 with an even more pronounced flaw (seller's pic) Interesting that the 1 of the date appears to be above the inner line. I'll post better pictures when it arrives
