    I cannot think of anything better than counting teeth on these😁

    I got a first edition for about £100 about 5 years ago, from Canada I think. It really is a great book.
  3. Iannich48
    I think not. Just a trick of the light in my opinion.
  4. Iannich48
    They certainly got their money's worth out of those early 1860's dies.
  5. Iannich48
    Of course, i should have mentioned the other engravers etc, not all down to Mr Wyon.
  6. Iannich48
    I think that you are spot on as usual. Shame on Noonan's, but hopefully other buyers will notice what you have noticed about the 3 and 4d's.
  7. Iannich48
    Well if Mr Wyon had not made any mistakes, the bronze coinage of 1860-63 would have been a lot less interesting.
  8. Iannich48
    That was a brilliant sketch.

    That is some nice work with those 1856 pennies. I too was surprised at the amount of PT small dates that were found. Saltford Coins had a very nice one a few months ago.
  10. Iannich48
    The 1856 plain trident have both the large date and small date, but i believe that the small date is rarer on those. However, the ornamental trident is only found with the small date as far as i know. So overall, probably the small date is slightly rarer.
  11. Iannich48
    I would say small date.

    That was a lovely coin. It also said that it had the portrait from the 1866-1879 threepenc, so the second portrait. That would mean that it was from a later striking. Does that make sense?

    I doubt if there are many numismatists working with the police, or even been asked to help.(with there enquiries)

    I guess that there are a few members on here that did buy coins in 1969. I was born in 1969, so that is a few years before i bought any.
  15. Iannich48
    Yes, shocking. I wonder if that is £250,000 retail and what the bullion value would be to those scumbag thieves.
  16. Iannich48
    1959 florin appears expensive in 1969. Nice info there David.
  17. Iannich48
    Not sure how anybody could think that the 1847/8 was an 1847/6, a nice coin and obvious overdate.
  18. Iannich48
    I like that theory.
  19. Iannich48
    I see what you mean. At first glance it looks like a proof.
  20. Iannich48
    Sorry, but why handle this coin without gloves?
  21. Iannich48
    Graded as about fine, i would say overgraded, but still very decent for this type.
  22. Iannich48
    It certainly does.
  23. Iannich48
    £1100, more than I would have thought.
  24. Iannich48
    Have you a list of coins that you are looking for, just out of interest? Somebody may have something for sale.
  25. Iannich48
    Well if people are silly enough just to pay for slab numbers, without even worrying what the coin looks like, then they must have more money than sense. As for the grading companies overgrading, then i don't know what can be done about that.
