I have a different problem in searching. My mother died when i was 2 years old and basically her mother and i believe her stepfather and that side of the Family took nothing to do with my Brother and myself. I assume after she was cremated they just pissed off and left my father and grandmother to bring us up, i'm not to sure i want to search for that side anymore, although i do have a lot of questions and gaps that need filling. My father and my grandmother were both pretty vague about the whole subject but i do know that my mothers mum and dad had a farm in East Grinsted? Called boylies farm, thtat's about as far as in went My father and grandmother are now both dead so a lot of info died with them

That still doesn't answer the grade issue, why they weren't worn out at the time?Minted in numbers? Plus the tokens that were likely still around, plus it being a relatively new coinage perhaps people were thinking it was'nt kosha Geld. Its certainly one to think about

He dös have 1 or 2 decent Crowns in there, i've seen a lot worse.

Hmmmm, off the top of my head i could only go with that i don't find them a popular coin, much like the Bank tokens there is'nt enough variety or variation to be a collectable series. Just my opinion, i could be wrong though

I think the toning of it would put be me off, a little too dark, although saying that, you then know its not been dipped. I also noticed the rubbing on the George and Dragon between the date but if you Look at a couple of others he has, they also have rubbing in the same spot. The 20% that Vicky mentioned is to obviously cover fees on ebay

Why is the Richard III so popular? His short 2 year reign?

And this one is?

Will be good to see the other stuff also. If nothing, you've learnt a little bit surrounding the Scarborough coinage and a very interesting period of British history. If its tweaked your enthusiasm then why sell the other coins, you seem to have a good Base to further your great grandfathers collection

They won't respond as they are Never wrong, in their eyes at least (null)

You seem to be getting a little stressd. The S D is in plain view in the Centre, Butt here is also a very small R D to the right of the coin, thats what was mentioned

I just downloaded the Kindle app for my Mac - it works fine, so that looks like the way for me to go Did you Download the kindle Version Peck or the ePub version, i downloaded the kindle app, but just wanting to make sure which to download

Think i'll Download it this time, i have last years in Paper form (which i generally prefer) but as Jaggy said, if you're on the go or at fairs etc it'll be good for a quick price reference. Wonder if Spink will go digital.

I'd also say NEF

Use a picture Hosting site such as photobucket and the copy the IMG url into your reply

Hmmmmm i think you might not be reading correctly Nicholas, it looks to be that its probably not genuine. The S looks very squint also compared to all the Lockett Plate pictures, the majority of those seem quite straight, that can of course be down to the strike, but looking at the both would make me wonder and also the RD stamped on the right hand side. Be cautious and don't get annoyed or upset at what the forum members might say, they are trying to help and Rob and historiccoinage are both very knowledgable in this area

Just curious, but can this be downloaded for ipad? kindle is just a poor mams ipad

I have another curious question. Do any of you set out targets for each forthcoming year or just buy what fits?

How does the price compare to the £290 delivered coin that went on eBay the other week?http://www.predecimal.com/forum/topic/8375-common-e1-6d-but-top-grade/#entry94906 When you look at the roses, you can see the extent of the varieties, not to mention the reverse differences, yet both 1561! Dave'll be digging his new book out and studying all this very soon! Still awaiting the book Stuart, and thats a decent Lizzie, much is that TG?

Because you just can't beat history

Hoping isn't a very sensible way forward. Buy what you can see. Oh I haven't bought it, but for £40 for the CC mint one would be a steal Here's a CC for you Sam

A nice honest coin Bob. You do have an eye for rarities.

BUT..................its pewter http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171194365394?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_sacat%3D0%26_from%3DR40%26_nkw%3D171194365394%26_rdc%3D1

He might want to try Numismatik Lanz here in Munich, he mostly sells (through auctions) Celtic, Roman, Greek, Byzantine. I heard that he has the largest Byzantine collection in the world

Agreed but there are 2 fools in this, the 1 who slabs it straight from the mint and the other who buys it for an over-inflated price in the slab

A Quote from the ebay blurb"As a guide to price, the last example we sold some years ago went for £950" probably forget to mention the helping hand he probably gave it, this time it sold for £330 which is more realistic IF IT SOLD that is The winning bidder with a 10 feedback score, feedback will reveal if it actually sold
