  1. He also did the same for the Henry VIII testoon I believe. I wonder if he adopts children. I'd nominate myself. I understand what you're saying Rob, but as you also say, not everyone has an endless Pot of Cash and even buying a high grade common hammered coin these days costs money and so its really down to staying focused on what you want from your collection and saving the cash whilst waiting.
  2. I'd very much doubt he'd sell any of that. I read on his facebook page some American offered a silly amount for his Queen mary coin, turned it down obviously
  3. Does he print money for a living? Some amazing coins he has, need a tissue to hand when looking at them
  4. I knew i saw it somewhere
  5. Obviously grade and rarity don't always go hand in hamd then.
  6. Ask geoff cope Rob, or perhaps you just aquired it for hin
  7. Not a fake but the picture has been taken from chards website 261657265929 so definate fraud, reported but nothing happening
  8. You still have'nt told me how you do that great result though. Looks like its in a slab. Slab debate anyone?
  9. Me either, hence i said i normally pay within 24hrs, my last coin purchase from there was paid within the hour.
  10. Oooooooh very bloomin nice Stewie
  11. Moot what you wish. As it stands ebay (whatever you say) gives buyers 7 days. I believe that is correct unless you can point us to something in the ebay small print that states otherwise? NO, thought not.
  12. My point did'nt regard ebay, it was bigger businesses in general. A BIN is obviously different as they want money there and then, the talking point was auctions and NOT BINs As for opening a case after 3 days, yes this is true, but you can't close it until the 7th or 8th now can you lol
  13. Ok course its fair to keep a seller waiting or else there woild'nt be a 7 day rule, it would be a 3 day rule. Plus it also gives time for a buyer to say NO which in turn would save the sellers time of posting/packing, trips to post offices and saving fuel etc. in larger businesses buyers normally wait 3 months before paying an invoice
  14. If you read ebay rules on payment it states a buyer is allowed 7 days to pay. I think opening cases after 3 days is a little pushy in my opinion, i would certainly open one after 5 if a buyer had'nt emailed too say it would be delayed or payment would be made on a certain day.
  15. Your's does have a 2 in date (1592)! Lol yes i know but i was more curious of your date, plus why on the OBV of yours, but as you say its easy To mistake an E for a 2 lol, Obviously if a pile of punches were sitting around Then it Would easily picked up, but that would then beg the question as to why more errors did'nt occur she was a bit of a tyrant, our Liz! Sounds a bit Ian Duncan Smith

  17. i would open a case after 5 days as i think its Long enough, you don't want to piss a buyer off by opening a case after 2 or 3 days as buyers know they have 7 days to pay. I generally pay within 24hrs of buying something anyway or else email the seller if it will take longer, but some People, such as Scott mentioned in another post somehwere sometimes don't see that they've actually won something and have a bill
  18. But then surely the 2 would have to be in use for it to be in Hand or avaliable? If a twice punched P was used over a 2 then i'm assuming the first strike was to hide the error and the 2nd to make the P look like a P as your other Picture does'ntt look much like an E
  19. Is the 2 in your 2nd picture from The same date Stewie? Its an upside down 2 in the legend?
  20. Technically ebuyers are allowed 7 days too pay regardless what any auction says. If you relist without filing a claim you'll lose your fees plus the buyer could still leave you a negative. Open a claim now and you must wait 4 days before closing it and claiming your FVF back, before you do close it, leave a feedback to the effect he was anon payer because if you closeit first you cannot warn others the buyer was a non payer
  21. To be honest Marvin, most european webstes i visit have next to zero slabbed coins. I've seen prrhaps 2 in the 5 years i've been scouting around
  22. Many forgeries of these of which one was highlighted in the ebay section of the forum just a few weeks back with the same story from an old collection. If he wants to sell it tell him to send it to CGS first ifhe believe it to be genuine and tell him you'll only buy if if they then send it back in a slab as a genuine coin, you don't want ripped for a few grand
  23. azda

    Provenance

    Normally yes, but those coins will also command a premium.
  24. Every coin that arrives via ebay is rare because the seller says so and the buyer has'nt done his homework. Coins in low grade nvf etc are'nt worth their salt Right now unfortunately, but welcome to the forum And i hope you have'nt paid much for those
  25. Well done Mckenzie, but open your eyes, coincraft is the worst place to buy, darkly lit and Dickensian, its like that so you don't see the shite they're selling you
