  1. There is a couple of Marsh books for sale on ebay, 3 in total, 1 is doubled up, but you get the Sov and half Sov books at least, 4 days to go at time of posting http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/gold-sovereign-books/282351231177?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20140122125356%26meid%3Dfa49e994546e4d48848972f6ad6f4904%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D391695604575
  2. The other problem is that you need to be a PCGS or NGC member before you could submit it, unless of course you handed it over to some 3rd party who would submit it for you but would obviously ask for a bigger fee for their time, as above, i wouldn't bother either
  3. Someone here mentioned that PCGS and NGC only use one grader for each submission, not according to this walkthrough, they use 3. Anyway, as much as i'm getting from the video is that it's based on opinion and no exact science behind a grade, so if anyone wants to send me $30 and their coin i'll happily give you a grade, i'll get the wife to give me a 2nd opinion before i send it back
  4. Hence the reason you should buy from reputable sources and dealers, those also exist on ebay and outside of ebay, there are even a few on here that may help you buy what you require, you only need ask.......
  5. What a pile of junk.....I don't hold out much hope for the other either, or money back to be honest. Is there selling protection on this group?
  6. Don't give her any ideas lol
  7. Its actually pretty cool way to get rid of some of the ER II pennies or even just the scrap, wonder how many it took
  8. Thank god they found a use, some of you boys may contribute http://wisetradesmen.com/news/create-a-floor-from-pennies
  9. I think the main thing is, as we're seeing from Jaggys post and elsewhere is the fact that no one agrees on a grade of a coin especially when you're talking sheldon grading or whatever scale that LCGS use, points differences is IMO minimal. I'll always ask the same question, how do you differentiate an MS63 from a 64 or an LCGS 78 and 80, IMO it's just BS, when you're talking AU58 to MS63 onwards then there should be some differences, but 1 point is just talking through their rear blowhole
  10. I sold Guy a coin late last year, it took around 2 months from initial contact to finalising because he was busy. I don't think he's ignoring you either, probably just overlooking what he's posted because he's posting another topic. He'll get back to you eventually
  11. You should ask the wife Pete, she probably has all your cash
  12. Here is how to do it on the MAC, click and open your picture, on the toolbar you'll see the tools tab, click on that and then there you can crop and adjust the size, bearing in mind you can only upload 500kb

  14. And how it affects values. http://www.coinweek.com/dealers-companies/eagle-eye/overgrading-affects-coin-values/
  15. Just bumped into this while reading an article on coin world.com This is an American price guide for British coins, how accurate depends on what you collect i guess http://www.coinworld.com/content/dam/cw/coinvalues/foreign/2016/090516%20-%20%20British%20Values.pdf
  16. Thought about you when i saw this @Peter, for some reason i was reading this in a @PWA 1967 Manc accent
  17. He said he got it from a car booty, he also said he has refunded the buyer and told him it was a fake......
  18. I have seen another 1869 somewhere that was mentioned as being fake, so yes, they are doing these as well. Lets hope whoever is winning it isn't honourable in their intentions and leaves it a cherry. Sent him a message and he said he was made aware that it was a fake with less than 12hrs left on the clock and was unable to cancel the auction and says he will notify the winning bidder, but i think the winning bidder already knows....... Wonder where he got it.......
  19. Extracting your silver content for various British coins http://www.silverrecyclers.com/Calculators/gbcoin_calculator.aspx
  20. When you knowingly know the facts and say the exact opposite then it's a lie, also you are correct, the Government at the time was in for remaining, so why would they also argue to leave at the same time, that's just nonsense, and another fact is/was, that part of the Tory Government were Brexiteers, Ian Duncan Smith, Boris Johnson, Theresa May, etc etc etc
  21. I don't think it is the case that the public didn't understand or consider the arguments, i think it's a clear case that the public were blatantly lied to in order to encourage the out vote. As soon as it was declared, Farage tells the public that he lied about the money that gets transferred to Brussels would be spent on the NHS. People voted on this type of lie and as i've said before, if these MPs lie in order to win an arguement or a seat or whatever, then it should be (not just Brexit) re-run with the full facts disclosed.

    Is It fake?

    I have paint to go and watch dry other than trawl ebay looking for a fake to report, if someone points something out then i'll do my bit for queen and country
  23. Because people want something now that isn't apparently available to them right at that point in time, so when they get one they can brag to their mates etc etc etc
