  2. Wir warten auf die ergebnisse
  3. My 2nd home, although the boss would say differently
  4. Not if you want to sell it! I disagree. I listed the thing below on the website, accurately described as dire, and it sold within a couple hours. It wasn't at 99p either. There's no disagreement on that grade Rob
  5. 1: CGS 80 2: CGS 75 3: CGS 70
  6. And for another £50 i'll tell them IF the 4th and 3rd party graders have got it correct Where does this shite stop lmfao
  7. There i's an NGC office here in Munich, they take care of all the handling and paperwork when coins are sent to the US of A for grading. I assume that they can state that the coin is already pre owned and no tax should be owing when sending out To NGC. The flipside of the coin is that you can also send a coin to PCGS in Paris but their prices are a little steep for my taste. Around 45 a coin more than 50 years old i believe. I could join NGC at their top level service for $275 And get 5 free gradings thereafter. $275 = 244 Euros but you have to pay courier service There and back with PCGS as they won't accept normal post, so You could in theory add another 30 euros on top with PCGS
  8. Uh, that should be passed, not past. Fined one shilling.The deadline for the offer has now passed..... and the offer is now in the past... Correct. We also do English lessons Here for free
  9. Declan aka the Scarlett Pimpernel
  10. The offer has now passed Rob ;)
  11. Oh dear lol. Rob, if you'd only have gone another quid i might have been tempted
  12. Apparently there was no 1838 shillings minted, i could have sworn i bought one just yesterday, must be a fake 331440371162
  13. Really? Where is it? Lol
  14. You can make photobucket folders private Stewie
  15. Well it's fairly clear whats gone wrong. You're using internet explorer to look AT the forum. Using IE and trying to paste a Link here does'nt work and i believe it's an Explorer fault. Try using firefox Or Google chrome when viewing the Forum And pasting links in here, it's also happened to me and using firefox allows you to paste a link
  16. 50 cent (euro cent)
  17. Ahhh that old "grandads collection" chesnut again 161563627685
  18. Do it
  19. I don't mind sharing as its a journey for us all, but i've learnt a lot from this forum in the last 18 months plus we all help each other out. Watching auctions is also a good key, especially live ones, you get a feel for prices, but always trust your own instincts, if you feel its not right or overpriced then move along
  20. Here is mine, EF. Check the difference in the shoulder armour on yours compared to mine, yours has more wear. I'd also say GVF, definately not UNC nor EF
  21. You'll see my crown in my link to omnicoin. Another point to bear in mind is that if the difference im the 2 Briots are barely noticable then obviously 1 dealer wants to make a lot more money than the other.
  22. This may always happen regarding forking out and something else appearing later, you either Take the plunge on the coin you find or risk waiting a good while for another too come along and end up paying a lot more fot similar grade a Year or more down the line, its the conundrum of coin collecting. Personally if i like a coin and it appeals to me then i'll go with my gut feeling. I bought last year a common 1887 crown even though i could have got one in UNC in the same sale it was graded GEF but i loved it and appealed to me, many ebayers would describe it as UNC PROOFLIKE IMO, but even though it was'nt UNC it appealed to me and as its my Collection my taste is the most important factor and bollox to what anyone else may think about it
  23. Thought I'd seen this before. He seems to add new stock fairly regularly and it's mostly nice stuff. I considered the Briot milled halfcrown he also added recently. But £2750 and I've seen better; MH Coins had one (different type mind) but that was £4,000 and that was a beaut. Both arguably expensive. The latter, the way I see it, deserves the premium as the detail is phenomenal. Will I ever see a better one? Not that I have a spare 3 or 4 grand right now. The thing with the penny is it's only Stamford. All those extra £s are for the grade, really, which is okay but a big outlay. Maybe I'm being unrealistic though - high grade Henry III are going to cost a fair few extra quid too! Would appreciate some photos Clive!!!? Nice coin! You're paying for grade these days whether as collectors we like it or not, i'm trying not to settle for mediocre anymore which means less coins bought, more saving and the right coin purchase. In years to come you won't regret the outlay
