  1. Ahhhh, WCC William Connor Connor, my son' name, tenner for it?
  2. He's sending to NGC stewie welcome John from Greece.
  3. Lol, FS-COINS, he's doing his ebay name a great favour selling fakes.
  4. Which in turn Rob, means they can't be added
  5. Choices should be obviously in the eye of the poster surely, regardless what others think, each have their own arguements. A certain Limit on purchase Price for reasons of normality should be in place, 1000GBP for each coin listed. So a 5k Limit? Excluding patterns
  6. A Vicky florin would Have to be in amoungst this for me Also a George IV halfcrown, love the REV design, it's so busy
  7. Happy. belated Peter. Hope the prawn Curry went down a treat.
  8. NGC grades counter-stamped coins based on the counter-stamp, not the host coin. Bizarre though don't you think, as both are relevant to a collector and as to value?And i feel somewhat smug Although as i said earlier, UK auction houses grade both
  9. Lol, ich verstehe auch nur ein kleines bisschen, weil ich aus Schottland bin
  10. I'll of course shhhhh, but it won't shhhhh China. Viel Spaß with that xxx
  11. Hmmmmmm, as long as you have its certificate, but, China does well in that catagory
  12. I must confess I've not seen an (English civil war counter stamped?) coin, nor an Australian Holey dollar, but we're surely talking about 2 different countries. As I said previously, in Blighty, both coin and counterstamp are graded and i won't digress further from this thread. If you can elaborate further on the civil war counterstamp coinage, are we talking British civil war? Then please PM me further details.
  13. P.s, if i offended anyone else with my comment then my apologies, i have an opinion i'm afraid and rather not mince my words to much, being blunt and straight to the point is who i am.
  14. Not sure whymy comment would offend you Nick, its inly my view that this Tory Government has nithing in common with the common working man and has only Got London and his millionaire friends at his heart, after all, Cameron is related to the queen. Remember all the flak itook about thr Indy vite last year? I stiod alone amoungst all the hammer blows, so please grow a pair, its my view and if you don't agree then feel free to PM me your own views against my post amd we can debate it, i have no problem with that or you or anyone else onthis forum regardless of religion, race or anything else. Oh and just for the record, shooting cameron was of course metaphorically speaking, but of course some of the MPs in there should be brought to justice for what is obviously being covered up, anyone that thinks otherwise just have their heads buried in the sand.
  15. Where does it say it was graded on the coin and not the counterstamp? I believe UK auction houses give 2 grades for similar coins, but i can't see anything on the label that suggest its the coin that was graded. Just saying. Nicholas, i woiuld'nt have taken that out ofits holder considering where its come from. Of course a majority dislike holders but thats good provenance there.
  16. This one is Williams but love the toning on it
  17. I emailed him About the grading terminology, his reply, notice he's still using EF instead of the Label XF Hello, The PCGS EF40 is approximately About Extremely Fine In terms of the English grading system, This Coin Is by no standards equal to a coin graded at good fine. If we take the standard scientific numismatic approach to grading coins, the Grade of Extremely fine is attributed to a coin that displays 90% or more of it original design-usually most obvious at the high points of the coins devices and legends, with a simple cursory glance at the coin in question and then on further detailed analysis (when in hand) I'm entirely satisfied that this coin displays at least 85% of its original raised design quite probably more. The PCGS is far more accurate than many British collectors give them credit for. The CGS seem a little sure of themselves considering there position in the market. As all good numismatists know, its a question of 'buy the coin not the slab'
  18. Alles gutes zum Geburtstag (as they say in Deutschland) (null)
