    While much of what the public brings you to see may be less than desirable, have there every been any pleasant surprises where someone brings something really spectacular?
  2. Coppers
    They were not struck in gold. Perhaps the coin has been "gold"-plated outside the mint. If so, it would only be worth face value.
  3. Coppers
    Remarkably well done! Congratulations!

    Happy Birthday!

    Hope you have a wonderful birthday!

    That's not a boast -- simply an indication that one shouldn't give too much credence on the grade that is assigned to a slab. All in all, I prefer the current British grading system to the one we (here across the pond) have developed.

    My few experiences with slabbing some GEF's purchased from the UK ended up with grades of MS-64.

    Thank you, Oli!

    My apologies ... my spelling is off -- the site is www.certifiedgbcoins.com.

    Did anyone check out this site lately? Apparently it's no longer in operation. Slabbed Coins

    Happy Birthday, Sylvester! How was the York Coin Fair?
  12. Coppers
    Happy Birthday! For how many of those 75 years have you been collecting coins?
  13. Coppers
    A very belated Happy Birthday! How was the BBQ?
  14. Coppers
    Exactly. Here in the US, there are a number of collectors willing to pay huge premiums for colorfully toned coins -- most of which I suspect have had more than a little help getting that way.

    Very sad and shocking news indeed.

    Another high grade 1869 penny up for sale. These are said to be quite rare in higher states of preservation and yet they do seem to appear with some regularity. 1869 Penny

    Apparently ebay has terminated the auction. Good work!

    Ebay Feedback

    Coppers replied to Peter's topic in Free for all

    While negative seller feedback on ebay is a danger signal, positive feedback is no guarantee of trustworthiness as I've seen some of the biggest scoundrels selling fake coins and tokens on ebay with nearly perfect feedback ratings.

    Ebay Feedback

    Have you tried contacting ebay?

    Have a Happy Birthday, Oli!

    How often has this happened, Chris?

    Geoff, I believe that Colin's 1952 half crown is the only known circulation strike. Wasn't there also a unique 1952 proof set which contained a penny (likely the same coin offered for sale by Mark Rasmussen in the past year or so) and a half crown?

    Just noticed the time of the post, Coppers! Couldn't sleep or up early? Andy, I suppose it would have been early had I been posting my message from the UK.
  24. Coppers
    Thank you, Tom!
  25. Coppers
    Tom....Are the counterfeits contemporary? In what metal were they struck? Any chance you could post a photo of one or two of them?
