  1. I would probably grade it as poor/ fair.

  2. A bit like all those fake round £1 coins that flooded the market before the 12-sided bi-metal ones were designed to combat forgery. Apparently 3% of pound coins in circulation were estimated to be forgeries at one point.

  3. Thanks. Your latest pictures are much better, and I'd say your coin is not a problem - it's struck slightly off centre, but that's not unusual for early milled.

  4. I agree - it looks kosher so probably a misdiagnosed denomination. But I'd say $150 is still B bit on the steep side for the most common 2/6 in the series.

  5. I think it is a half crown rather than a shilling, but for that the weight should be 15.05g, so still light and therefore dubious.

  6. You'll need to check with proper collectorists but l'd guess the Four Pence could be Maundy Money. All your coins are beautiful compared to the filth l have! I'm more interested in the metal than the coin. Oh and silver is worth a bit more now so revise any value estimates upward. I use eBay as a gauge of attainable value but l've recently realised low-priced fakes might be artificially lowering the bar and in any case your coin quality should command a premium.

  7. Looks like an Edward I or II farthing to me, of the later classes (e.g. 10).
