  1. Ir was'nt big enough?
  2. It could be said that the seller is merely hoping that a newb buyer will pop along with 500 big ones and buy the coin, i assume he obviously knows what it exactly is as he identifies most coins correctly. I did ask about his Halfcrown and got this back regarding it being overgraded from where it was actually bought........... Sorry but where a coin has come from is not infomation we pass on. We sell large volumes of coins from all over the world and sell on commission in behalf of clients also so the answer to your question is either not known or not disclosible. Regards, Best Regards, Chris Taylor. I dis reply to this message from buckscoins saying that i was'nt interested in disclosure because i knew where the coin came from and the purchase price, and that i was more interested in the extra Grade that it had aquired and if he could shed any light on it lol
  3. AND GO ANDY MURRAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY: Pity he could'nt have done it in the Wimbeldon final, but hey ho, maybe one day my son......But well done to him

  5. It must be an indoor pool as there's not enough sunshine in the UK for an outdoor pool. And i will concur with Peck, been a great Olympics for the British team. They must have the best cycling team in the world right now.
  6. There is actually a pontefract Siege shilling for auction on the CNG website $1500 estimate and last time i looked it was over $2k
  7. You're cheap Scott, go for the halfcrown
  8. Amazing, 69 downloads and just a handful of comments on the coin lol. Coppers, should we get you some JAM JAR spex to find the lustre? Or has your comp gone tits up?
  9. Well you can't spend it all on a coin surely? Keep the £5K to one side for a coin and let the wife decide what to do with the shrapnel.........
  10. It was tattooed on his forehead by his ex wife when he forgot their anniversary
  11. Ding My arse, have you Seen some of the shite with rim dings?
  12. And he's a member of this very forum
  13. Nice coin with mucho lustre remaining
  14. I'd go the opposite way round Peter, Poor/NF
  15. Maybe you can Test various other chemicals Stuart while you're at it, just so we all know what is good to use and what is'nt.
  16. So kookaburra is Aussie slang for a gouge? That's odd, I thought it was a native bird 4 Negs and 1 Neutral does'nt exactly fill me with confidence either in his short ebay life They were over a year ago.Since then he has redeemed himself. Maybe so Peter, but obviously he did'nt list anything for a while as they're still visible

  18. Yes Stuart, UK eBay, thats where i sell a few coins on and My fees over a £400 sale were £40 but they have now increased to a Maximum of £75. I think you'll just have to Trust me on this one.
  19. I think you're under the assumption Stuart that its 10% in every pound for eBay fees, its only up to a Maximum of £75 Fee for private sellers and £40 for a Business seller
  20. £40 was the set fee for all sellers on auctions over £400 its still the same now for Business sellers, but eBay has just raised their limit now, so for private sellers the fees are now still 10% but up to a Maximum of £75 fee instead of the Old £40 fee the new £75 applies to private sellers only, business sellers are still at the Old £40 rate until eBay decides they need to rape more cash
  21. You'll be a private seller Stuart and not a business seller, business seller Rates dis not increase, hence the £40 fee, for the rest of us its 10% up to a maximum of £75 plus 3.5% in PP
  22. EBay will take £40 Stuart and if paid with PP about £60. He's had 1 offer already, but if Robs grading is correct then its already at its money when he bought it
  23. Looking about i spotted an Edward VI 1551 Halfcrown which i thought i'd seen elsewhere before. I did a little digging around on the site where i initially thought i'd seen it but it was'nt the same coin. So more digging on coin archives i eventually found it. I realsie dealers have to make a crust, but it seems at the expense of upping half a grade when the auction house in my opinion gave a perfectly fine grade for it. So here's the coin in question sold at St James`on the 19th April this year http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=1157747&AucID=1066&Lot=154&Val=9fc76a441ce1fc8c3c15fa2c83b92e33 Observe price and more importantly the grade Now the same coin which seems to have gone upwards in grade............... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/360453293423?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3D360453293423%26_rdc%3D1 Yes i know people have different opinions about grades, but obviously St James`cannot grade or buckscoins is looking for a 1000 profit.............Based on SPINKS PRICE GUIDE (notice i added GUIDE) for Fine 750 and VF 2250, so adding half a grade certainly boosts profits. Whats the hammered guys opinion on grading?
