Wow, Stu spotted it... to think is been hanging around for ever (thinking it was solid silver) so yeah its a keep contemporary forgery would be of interest to me. may thanks "H"

.....ah? ,,,,contemporary forgery... Now thats an Idea ......anyone up on theses?

Again another opinion required in regards to a worn out William III Half Crown, 16_ _ , Chester Mint ? Large Shield its very rubbed but looks like is lived in the ground, ..... is it Scrap or worth keeping? Many thanks "H"

The Half Crowns I will leave for now, they need looking at before I have them scrapped👍

I also have theses Half Crowns... to the pot or keep? sorry to keep asking only I can see that if I don't sort things out they will remain sat in a box in a cupboard and inevitably end up being thrown.....😟

Many thanks, I have a few worn out coins but the general thought is better to show just in case something gets missed, I tried looking on Ebay to see if one looks in the same condition....it was a space filler and as I was working through my boxes...I found another that's so much better and now added in place of this rubbed out one. Many thanks "H"

ahhhhhhh..........! I understand its bad form to talk "whats it worth?" for me the difficulty is the way silver prices are and how some of the lower grade older coins are able to get a realistic Idea of what the sell price should be? The George I, SSC Shilling 1723 Is something that I will be looking to move on, I don't see it as scrap but its not in fine condition....a difficult call.... many thanks for any input or guidance....most welcome. 👍

this isnt the best photo, I will see if i can get a better one...👍

Found the others today....A fair devil indeed....

A bit off topic...however it may be of interest...? Victorian Farthing, 1838 there is a line that links NIA in the word BRITANNIAR some of the A's look like solid Bars along the bottom ....unless these are common? any input and if its a "keep" greatly welcome 👍

Ahhhhhh...! so the H mint coin had the potential to be of interest albeit for the fact 1882 was mass produced by Heatons.....bummer!! 1862 circulated so no interest 1773 & 1775 are possibly contemporary forgery produced in the US ..... now that got to be of interest ?!?!?! Did I mention "I don't feel any thing for the Pennies!?!" all the very best "H"

Aha, A few more raise their heads, Interestingly one has the "H" Heaton Mint Mark...I understand that this may be the most interesting of the group? open and honest I don't feel any thing for the Pennies, looking just to keep the important ones for the family. any advise or guidance most welcome.

Ah... its the counterstamps that I would like to pursue, I have some Reales that have various Chinese counterstamps that are believed to be merchant stamps... the other 2 attached are British coins counterstamped to be used in other country's so looking to find out where?

Aha.. do tell more..I have a few and have been wondering where to go to discover more details out... any Ideas where to go? 👍

I couldn't agree more, I didn't have a agenda when buying coins and not knowing anything I bought any items I found old and interesting .....and cheap 🤷I like Paddy's with chunk missing...It has character, I have a few that have chunks missing and others with holes that have been worn as a pendants..... one is in a really good condition easy to make out the king and letters... I guess this came to be as it was worn rather than in circulation. 👍
