    My heart and wallet yearn for a Jaguar, convertible.

    Whatever you do, avoid buying coins. The advice you received above is the best around, buy books, supplies etc and let the collector decide what coins they want to buy. All of us collectors have gotten coin gifts at one time or another, and they often were purchased for too much money, or were of little interests to our collecting tastes.

    Did you notice your high bidder is a negative feedbag kind of bloke? Too bad you can't have cancelled his bid before the auction ended.

    From all the garbage for sale on eBay, rather loosely in my humble opin. There are princess of wales notes, fakes of Churchill 9/- notes etc. Lots and lots and lots of junque.

    I don't know where I am sometimes But I only know I would like to be living on the Costa Del Sol, or in Algarves in Iberia right now.

    We just had our first outbid, and I am responsible

    Actually my 11 year old daughter would love to have it, for a 23 yr old car with a 5 speed and only 35K miles, that is not a bad price. Ta bad it is in the UK and we are here. Otherwise I would buy it, and drive it for the next 10 years gingerly and then let her have it as her show car.

    Which is why I inquired. There are some large dealers on eBay that have less than stellar reputations in the numismatic community that have higher feedback than chardcoins.

    Actually I am watching a large young head sovereign lot, the price seems to me to be okay, but I am concerned about the feedback, and having to have the coins shipped out of the UK.

    The best insurance is to not let anyone local know you collect, in fact the very fewest people that know you collect coins the better. I have known people that bragged about their collection to only regret it later whence their home was burglarised. I have three safe deposit boxes in three different banks. The only valuable coins in my house are the virtual ones on CD-ROMs

    This seller has a few lots, mostly gold that I am perusing. Because of the volume of sovereigns I am looking to purchase, I would like to find a safe seller. Have any members dealt with this seller and can share their experiences?

    What do the facts you state about yourself have to do with your auction site? Nothing else stands out, but that you claim to drive a better car than my noisy Lada piece of junk. Perhaps if your auction site drives out Meg, you can purchase a Bentley or a Rolls. Until then I wish you luck.

    Wanted one of these for a long time, hard to find in nice shape, they are usually bunged up from being used against Napoleon at Waterintheloo.

    I really really really need to buy some ancient gold sometime. I only have bronze and silver. I desire most something gold from Syracuse or an Alexander lifetime Stater.

    Gees ohpees, I clicked on the link expecting a picture, not a narrative and a request for a pic, ah the nerve o' yah. Yes indeed a picture would be nice.

    I notice a tendency especially with 17th century and earlier coins to *upgrade* them by at least two grades to seemingly account for age etc. Kind of makes you want to send a Harrier after them with a nice Phoenix missile.

    Then I have to ask you, is it the size of the pre 1990 5P or the post 1990 5P?
  19. krasnaya_vityaz
    Here is the low grade example: http://cgi.ebay.com/Scotland-Francis-and-M...1QQcmdZViewItem

    I have seen one or two very nice ones, and recently a beater piece that may have been on flEaBaY.
  21. krasnaya_vityaz
    What is the size of the coin, in cm or mm? This is an indication of the denomination. The four starred coins are the pennies, the two starred ones tend to be halfpennies.

    I prefer a womans gaze over a glare anyday, and I can order a beer in most languages. With that I am set for life.
  23. krasnaya_vityaz
    Unfortunately for me now 17th century tokens in better grades are really hot. Prices have risen exponentially in the last couple of years. The usual junque is still priced about where it was though. Scottish was hot for about three years recently, but since last year the bottom seems to have fallen through there. Now it is possible to buy nicer stuff at reasonable prices again. Now I can imagine perhaps actually buying that Mary Ryal I am so desirous of.

    2b or not 2b dat is da ?.... Hamlet's diatribe in 21st century.

    This **** has now five bids and is at $20.00. Suckers are born every minute. It can be reported to eBay, but then nothing will happen, and you might be "interfering" with an auction.
