Is this a new purchase Rob, not your usual green Background, so it would either be new or one coming up for sale.

You could have my mother-in-law for free, she's antique

Just Hope your buyer does'nt go to the Pub, he's Never Drink again. I listed some of *name removed* shilled auctions last Year, it was a Lot of money, £5500 i think his shill bidder had pushed his Gold coins to, 30 mins after posting the thread Rob had taken a look and the ones i'd listed which were shilled had gone, thats why i know he reads These boards and is also. Member here, because i'd posted my thread in the members section

*name removed* has overtaken Platt in the shilling game, which is not easy to do, but every Gold coin he lists is shilled. I'm fairly confident he also does the Same with the silver. He also reads these boards.

Saying all that though, coin Sold on the 28th July and Sent to Canada within 3 days as FB was left in the 31st. Smells of bullshit to me now

Jefstenbon i think his name was, a Canadian slab number buyer by the looks of it.

Yeah, but if it was going too cheap, why wouldn't the seller just withdraw it from sale? An over-enthusiastic shiller would cost more in the long run. It would depend on how much time is left Peck. I think if there's 12hrs or less you cannot pull an auction

I had 1 Guy last Year make about 12 bids one After the other. I basically cancelled his bids because i thought he was a piss taker. I emailed him and explained my reasoning for cancelling. He replied and was shocked, he explained that he did this quite often in order to put other bidders off bidding, his 12 bids were only £1 each time

If you click on accumulators website in his signature there you'll find the 1922 reverse 1927

I decided I needed a life. His basic problem is that if a proof is listed in Spink for a type, what he lists is a proof. So here we have a bog standard worn 1937 crown, but it must be a proof and fortunately for this imbecile, a Matt Proof is listed. ipso facto he has an extremely rare matt proof - coz it isn't shiny like the rest of them. Price it a bit higher than the regular proof and you arrive at the listing. Spink apparently has the complete list of coins, so only one 1806 proof halfpenny exists and Peck wasted 10 years of his life writing the book. He said he has been collecting/dealing for 54 years. The last 53 have been wasted.The last 53 wasted? I'd say the last 54 were

Yes this guy has definately lost the plot, he even broke Rob.

Me to, especially old auction catalogues, picked up a few Major sales ones.

Funnily enough, my neighbour just upstairs from me is great friends with the owner apparently, he collects bank notes, so his great friend obviously didn't offend him by offering the overpriced shite

If i Buy a coin to sell on i always ask myself if i'd buy it for my own collection and obviously the answer to that question was yes. Holed or not i still think it's a nice coin to Look at but take onboard everything said.

A reversed C does look more probable if you look at the C in VICTORIA

That might be the coin Rob Actually bought? I think he's looking for it before this.

Not entirely sure that its a G over D, i would think that the curvature of the alleged upside Down G to be thicker, but looking at the G in REG to the it seems to be thinner?

Ok, not exactly a laugh, more trying to compute the Price difference and grade. Both coins are the same but with an 800 Pound Price difference and a half grade (apparently) What i'm trying to work out, does a plugged hole really drop the grade so far, is the 1st really an AEF, to me both are the same grade. Comments, and which would you buy if you had to choose between the two? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/350814885653?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_from%3DR40%26_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3D350814885653%26_rdc%3D1 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/130954651547?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_sacat%3D0%26_from%3DR40%26_nkw%3D130954651547%26_rdc%3D1

Agreed with Colin' post, lovely coin, but with such a striking flaw i'm sure you'll come accross it sooner or later. I also think in your assesment that it's been from a foreign sale is also correct. As a matter of interest, have you asked any of the Major buyers for help? Ras, Petition crown, Roddy Richardson etc?, they may offer some light. Just a Suggestion. P.s, is that a small bend in the 3rd quarter on the REV?

Certainly liking the new smooth look Forum. I can even post from the ipad now with the ip board app, previously everytime i wanted to reply from there it would kick me out. Maybe just Need to add a few more Smiley Emoticons such as drool etc and we're onto a winner. Ich druck dir die Daume

How I have missed your dinner plates Dave! I hope that's not a stonking great fingerprint at 10 o'clock on the rev? Could Possibly be Paul, then again, i'm not complaining for what i paid for them

As Stuart has already remarked, if CGS won't slab a flan crack then they'll be buggered with hammered with all that clipping and irregular Flans, it would just be a waste of peoples money

Coin 4 has really surprised me as a GVF. Hari Detail worn, shoulder worn, rubbimg to the face. I had one similar which they graded 35 and based my asessment on that, so i think their grading is inconsistent. The Last 2 i had virtually correct but i'd still say the William III is better IMO

Last time i sent 2 coins they sat at this stage for over 2 weeks
