Most of ebay is just jammed up with rubbish which people are not interested in . They do however seem interested in great rarities and high grade victoria and before coins . It really seems that coin collectors really have woken up and smelled the coffee as far as the dross thats on there and it's just a haunt for overpriced rubbish really now . Every so ofter when a decent estate collection turns up there is lots of interest .2 points

What many people don't realise is that native British - mistakenly referred to as Celts - traded all around the Mediterranean, I believe as far as Turkey? Maybe even beyond. This didn't stop with the withdrawal of the Romans, and Tintagel may have been one of those defended strongpoints that also acted as a trading port.1 point

Some lovely coins there @PWA Just what the hell happened here? It looks like someone shot the die with a Magnum .357 just as it struck the planchet. Normally I would have said it was a 7 over 7 but with all the clashs and cruds I'd say I am not too sure. For anyone interested the coin is on eBay here.

It is still possible to find good stuff on there. You just have to hunt further and for longer, which can involve a time and patience issue. Also, as Blake alludes to, even using the advanced search facility, diamonds can slip through the net because of an odd description.1 point
