    PCGS were obviously proving a point in paying out that sortof money but now changing their policy what sort of point are they now proving. As Stewie says, give it 10-20 years amd tears might start flowing when things start happening to the coin inside the slab. Time will tell

    PCGS eye appeal has got SFA to do with MY or an actual buyers eye appeal, what a stupid assesment to bring into a grading system. Basing a small part of a grade On their choice if it appeals to THEM or not is crazy

    My current scratched coin was graded Fine in the Grant Francis (1920) and Lockett (1956) sales and 'almost VF' when sold by Mark Rasmussen in 2004... .. the earlier one .. Poor(ish) .. Unless you compared it to the Eddy VI shilling in the current Spink, in which case it might also make Fine! This was graded as VF by Glens in 1974 or 76 and again by Spink in their 2013 sale, its better than VF and i've upped it half a grade to GVF

    I don't think they could have either Colin, must belong to someone they know. Standards are dropping

    You can also download CCGB if you have kindle or the ipad/phone app for kindle, that way you're not waiting on a delivery

    ... and this is UNC apparently. http://www.londoncoins.co.uk/?searchlot=1995&searchtype=2&page=CatalogueLooks like they have some new graders at CGS, from the blind school.

    They are far from consistent in their grading standards. I quite liked the attached coin in their sale, described as: 1839 No W.W. Plain edge Proof, Reverse upright, ESC 1284 nFDC with hints of green and gold toning Failed to mention the edge knock at 11 oclock though

    Shame about the scratch, but you get pick up a problem free example for that price
  15. azda
    So spink seem about right at £500, although £450 would be spot on

    Probably need to check some realised prices for the higher end stuff this year as they always fly in UNC grades

    We were just discussing the 1841 penny on another thread, comparing your CCGB price against spink and Tony Claytons site in UNC, yours seems a bit low, both have it at £500, your price £200
  19. azda
    There i's no BU price for this Peck, Tony Claytons site also has it at £500, so maybe Chris has this One a bit out?

    Pete's 1841 penny: Its interesting to see the price Difference in Spink and the new CCGB book for this coin compared to what CGS are saying, but i thought CGS were a GRADING company, so where does their valuation come from. In UNC SPINK has £500 and CCGB £200 compared to a Grading companies £600
