  1. Spinks site is a pain in the arse, best to Write them down yourself
  2. Bloody ipad, it really does have a mind of its own
  3. Correct Peter, 4 Reales to be precise, lot 645. in my nice NEW shiny Krause book in XF is $600 or £359.As this is graded as a British EF it should technically be an American AU grade and therefor of higher value which Krause does'nt have and it will be sent to PCGS Paris along with the 5 Morgans that were recently purchased so i can maximise their FULL potential
  4. Lol, i just noticed that my ipad included the word cheeseburger me off, which in Narnian dialect and any bloody other English should have read "Cheese me off" i swear i'm gonna Launch this ipad into Space soon with my foot at the end of it
  5. The 1864 Crosslet 4 went for £3400, the 1905 i can't find, possibly pulled?
  6. The thing is I've already bought the coin. It was in an auction at a Spanish auction house and I now owe them the money.I am in the UK. I don't understand why a company based in Luxembourg is making a fuss even if it is US policy to think Cuba doesn't exist.Wikileaks is based in Sweden and the US GOVT has blocked any transactions to them those include Visa and paypal etc, the American Government really do think they own this Planet, sorry to our american friends on the forum, but it really Cheeseburger me off the way they think they run this planet of ours
  7. Lol, i did'nt go for the Crown, it was nice (the cheaper one) and its one coin thats on my List to buy but in Matt proof, i went a little Spanish/Mexican, lets see of you can guess from that
  8. I got mine at 20% under my max, so fairly happy at that. Just waiting on the invoice now.
  9. Someone got a bargain on the 2nd one then
  10. To hell with washers. Based on what the wife got tonight for an unc G5 penny, I shall be throwing anything up to EF (and probably beyond) in the bin. It simply isn't worth the effort to buy them for listing when they sell for a couple quid.Welcome to the wonderful World of ebay, its been poo for quite some time, everyone wants something for nothing
  11. I often wonder what yours would sell for, a frightening thought lol. I was mainly interested in those two 1902 Crowns too see what each went for, plus i had a Proxy on a Spanish coin
  12. Problem being Peter is how old the books on CD are, they price guide could be well out of date as i've recently witnessed on a Spanish 8 reales i had, krause had it down at $100 in its grade, i sold it for £290, needless to say i've bought 1601-1700 and 1701-1800 Brand new a few weeks back so i hopefully don't make mamy errors on any other World coins i may sell in the future. I reckon buying new every 5-7 years should keep you in touch with prices (just)
  13. You should try Krause for a more serious bicep curl. 1400 Pages worth

    Afternoon!

    Bonjour Tom and welcomed to the wacky World of coins.
  15. Probably a repro of a James II shilling or halfcrown
  16. Be nice to see it. Here's an interesting half mark I got my hands on recently. Many of the half marks of 1918 and 1919 were darkened by the mints (geschwärzt) to prevent hoarding.You are correct, they started this practise in 1917 which you can read about from my Kurt Jaeger guide book
  17. Just wondering how those two 1902 Crowns did, plus i have a Proxy on a foreign coin if anyone is taking notes? (null)
  18. Lot 1818 possibly one for Seuk
  19. Lot 1805 looks to be a suspect Northumberland, looks to be a scratch from the mouth and Tops missing off the OBV legend
  20. Lot 1799 is quite a Statement considering the Verd on the OBV, finest known apparently (my arse) and how do they know that its the "finest known" unless its slabbed and can be checked against a population
  21. Why bother indeed. I would do the same if someone was trying to rip you off Rob, and as i seem to have a Passion for coins i hate little scroats trying to rip off the more unsuspecting sometimes gullable ebayers, remember, i did the same when Platt was (and probably still is) ripping ebayers off for thousands every month. Word of mouth is this community sometimes goes a Long way.
  22. It had to be done. Raising the bidding in such a fashion should have alerted ebay that something was up alongwith the reports they must have received about the sellers fraudulent activity. Surely when the actual owner of the coin reported it, it should have been sorted then instead of letting it go on
