Notable cleaned coins lose value, you should avoid them if you can. Welcome to the forum

Look at his eyes thinking he has something there. His head is so far stuck in the sand that he cannot read that the thing is half the given weight of an original. Numpty

Thts what the old goat has been doing. If I find any typos he's gonna get his pebbles in a slimg

The 96 shilling is South African. The more worn silver coins would be bullion value only. The 1935 crown looks nice but i'm on my iphone, so someone on the computer can help a bit more shortly

A nice VF Charles I shilling here 141591381979 Oh wait, it's a friend of these boards

When is their catalogue due out? They're leaving it a bit late in the day if the auction is on the 12th

Do you do the the catalogue for Dukes Alan?

Just wondering if it's been mounted. Double struck arm also with some flattening at 8 oclock I think the 50k valuation by the BBC is OTT or good/free marketing by dukes

I can forsee in my crystal ball Geoff Cope having a stab at this, even though it's shite

Its the BBC Rob, what else would you expect

Lol. Dukes is on the Saleroom but the catalogue is'nt out yet, just checked

That is the OBV Paul

Not many here who grade in MS (American grading) We use the 100 point system. MS63 is around a British AU i believe

Or none of thr above

Itsoinds like an encapsulating problem as thisis an early UIN. Oh dear

That is worrying though ...that no mention is made of this very obvious edge knock....they cant have missed it... Sold for £900, ouch someone might be disappointed if they never saw that knock

I did write to the seller to say the same thing Rob and he wrote back and said "No idea if it's a copy"

No mention of the word "COPY" here 181676779661

Mint error apparently 301544852890

I'm sure i've seen this one recently somewhere

Thats a hell of an estimate £1500 with the juice if it realises the estimate

These gothic crown fakes are very very good, until we can pin down the exact points of working out how To spot One the ONLY other suggestion (if you bought it) would be to send it to CGS seeing as You know the dealer i assume he'd take it back if it were found to be fake. The price seems good, so its a tough call. Ask him where he bought it/got it, was it part exchanged for something, does He know how to spot a fake etc? If not, how does HE know it's genuine, explain your concerns. Caveat, if the price is too good to be true then i'd still be wary

The seller has been spoken about on here for this very reason. I bought a couple of coins from there a while ago and never went back because of the overgrading

I'm surprised he did'nt pick up on the tooths error then, he would have crucified me for that one

Well if you can't beat them, join them. VILL NOVI CASTRI?
