    There are a lot of MDF rubbish cabinets on Ebay. A new seller was producing oak cabinets.I emailed him.He was oblivious and said his brother was making the cabinets and he was just selling them.

    We have discussed this before but a proof is struck from a specially prepared die. The early strikes on the circulation coins in theory should be superior and possible to reach 99 to 100. If 82 represents a choice unc coin. Where are the 18 points lost?

    Eddie Get yourself along to a fair.There are slabbed coins on sale but few and far between & apart from London Coins they rarely appear in auctions. Save your slabbing money. At the end of the day it is up to the individual.
  4. Peter
    The coins are all fairly low value. Slabbing cost would be questionable and outweigh the perceived benefit of ....."cough cough...extra value" All the rejected coins would sell raw on Ebay. If the rest of your slabbed coins didn't achieve what you hoped.It amounts to a sum that could have bought something nice.

    Hi Eddie I would like to see images of the 6 rejected coins for the forum to chew over. TPG is not my thing. There would have to be a very good reason for someone to tell me how to suck eggs.

    I keep my eyes peeled for white fiver's and the Jerry dropped version's. The replacement notes are nice to find.

    Nice coin all the same My S1836 was one of the earlier hammered purchases by myself.(common) I liked the fact that Calais was part of England at the time. It's a pity we didn't extend the Chunnel to go to the Med via The Loire

    I remember these from aunts & uncles I also put a collection of 10 shilling notes and £1 notes together 8 or 9 years ago.
  9. Peter
    So are we expecting a flurry of 10 shilling notes blowing around Manchester next week?
  10. Peter
    Once correctly attributed would it sell for in excess of what you paid? You know where I'm coming from.

    Today there are many coins I would love. I shall just watch a few and grin as the estimates are blown sky high.At least DNW are consistent with low estimates.

    I'm a child of the 60's. I think Mrs Peter realised it was going to be a car or bike. By spring it will be 100% perfect. (We have plenty of space for cars in the garage) I need to source a hardtop. My mother can't wait for a spin and is digging out her head scarf and designer sun glasses. Boys need toys.(I've also got my eye on a table soccer game. )

    The internet is great if you are the vendor. The internet drove the bidding on the lots I watched.

    This morning we dropped Mrs Peter's car off at the local garage for a lick of paint then I spotted at the back of the garage a 03 plate MGTF 20,000 miles and 98% perfect. A test drive,kicking of tyres,a haggle and ker....ching it's mine. My reasoning as I explained to Mrs Peter is that it is always too easy to put things off until tomorrow. I will have a nice winter toy to play with. Brruuum Brruuum. Yes I am aware of head gasket,cam belt problems.

    i agree with Peck. You have considerable value in approx £70+ face of GV silver (could be some 92.5% silver !911-19) The rest will at least be 50% silver. Ebay is a good place to shift these. The fact that coppers are in a bucket...

    TPG's are like a comfort blanket to the less confident collector. The collectors are getting ripped off at the same time.
  18. Peter
    I like them all. My remit is to get hammered examples.(especially farthings). Size doesn't always matter.
  19. Peter
    9.99 Euros.

    Personally it does nothing for me. The strike is nice and errrrr. It has the appearance that only the moneyer would like.
  21. Peter
    Needs a soak in acetone (or verdigris....an American product) It's not pitted.

    I don't imbibe Clive. Booze and Cubans have been knocked on the head for the foreseeable future.

    Its not a long journey by your helicopter

    The obverse shows considerable wear. I wonder how many packs of 3d crisps it bought in the 60's.?
  25. Peter
    If you have a binder with sleeves put your coins into 2x2 flips.That is if your sleeves are 2x2.Brittania albums and sleeves are suitable. The self adhesive ones are preferred over stapled. The Royal Mint and Westminster coins I would hide under the floor boards so you don't remember how much you have been ripped off.
