I'm going to dip my toe in here and say either Dutch or Norwegian, best i can do without the book. Someone will be along sooner or later with a better answer i'm sure.

You should see what some Americans charge UK buyers for postage. $32 isn't cheap either

You really need to remove that S from your keyboard Debbie....The other comment i was really joking WHAT! I've just ordered an extra key for the Frontera...you've let me down, aZda! I'd order a new car if it's a Frontera you have

I'll second that Debbie, you know any nice ladies who'd like to join our exclusive group. They can drop their keys in the ashtray

I'm going for a straight 1750 from the pics. I think Rob has a 1750/46 on his site, don't quote me tho, take a looksy.

Nahhhhh, they tore that doon in the 80s John....... Am still paying for the reintergration of the East, they're doing better than the old west is we all oor coin Just ask Chris Perkins lol

Most of the world has a climate, we have weather There's no such thing as the wrong weather just the wrong cloths Unfortunately there's not many Tarzans in this jungle who wear cloths these days. A big wooly jumper is sufficient. I'll keep my leapord skin loin cloth for the bedroom

Maybe when you' ve finished with the shillings you can start on the £1 coins, apparently there's 14 million of them in the UK, or was it 40 million? Anyway, that should keep you out of trouble for another few years

I used to dribble over the TR7 as a kid

Unfortunately i'm agreeing with the old codger here, looks silver washed. Can you weigh it?

It was 23 degrees in Scotland last week, blizzards forecast for ALL of England this week.........Safe flight home

Yiou have far to much Debbie, being able to afford a holiday.............

I did acknowledge the source, i didn't name the source as it came from somewhere else and i thought i'd add the letter here, i don't personally know the source, so my apologies if i did'nt help you in any way......

Thouhg this might help next time anyone asks how many of these were actually minted. This is from the national archives at Kew (retrieved by a fellow collector) Letter is dated Feb 1935, so even back then there was some serious collectors

Maybe take a good look at the ebay seller ID and see what you spot. To give you a little hint, there's a * in the name, so i would'nt trust that price what so ever You've got me there, Azda, what do you mean? If it was shill bidded, there's still £33 to pay in fees! And why bid up your own item that high, surely it suggests there was still someone willing to pay over £300? As I said, though, the coin may well have been UNC, but without having it in hand, and no talk in the description about lustre, etc, I couldn't even conceive of a bid at half of what it went for! That was one of the sellers with whom there was more than a whiff of collusion between him and other eBay sellers with similarly styled names. The coin definitely looks to be a proof though, not a currency piece. Correct on all counts Nick

So, are the dealers amoungst us finding it harder to pick up decent stuff at reasonable prices, IE: the bread and butter coins, what you'd sell on a weekly basis perhaps?

Is this major variety listed anywhere? ESC 1177 (R2 Rated = Very Rare) and Spink 3647

"Restrike" and "original" are not the right terms for a coin that was never out of production for over 200 years. According to the article seuk submitted and i quote "Various articles claim that the Maria Theresa Thaler was re-struck with an unchanged appearance since 1780. However, this is only really true for restrikes made after about 1850. Don't shoot the messanger

Anyone tried Mrs Miggens Pie shop (Blackadder) Love that programme......I lived about 10 miles outside Accy.......Still a shithole lol

Well, here's another.......Graded as VF (not by me) but may help the cause

Do you think people are going to get burnt from these high prices, or do you think this is how things are going to be in the future? Are the British coins now playing catch up with the Americans? It does seem a lot of money 4x over book, but if you ever watch Heritage auctions you'll see some crazy prices for British coins there also

Can we ask what you paid for it?
