Previously posted in the hammered section, but an acquisition from this week

I often increase the insurance on Special Delivery, I thought the maximum cover with the RM was £2,500? Good value imo, never had to claim so far ...

I'd agree with the grade opinion on the 1887, maybe slightly less on the 1902, here's mine

I think they are not to be relied upon, I have this die no. 49 1878 shilling which I'm (fairly) sure is fourth head Bull 3051 even though the maximum die number is stated as 47

34 minutes ago, VickySilver said:I agree, very attractive. Was it the no die number status that attracted you?
Yes, it's a type (based on Spink and Bull / ESC classification) that I didn't have - 5 types of young head sixpence as far as I'm concerned, I'm just missing the 1 type now
-
Latest addition to my sixpence type collection, only mid grade but quite attractive and scarce

Looked them up online somehow, or in something you have locally?

22 hours ago, Rob said:Not a clue, but best guess would be client no.640 wants one of these and the other bit could be and/or a price code, vendor and year of purchase. Could be a Baldwin's ticket, in which case 71 could be client number it was acquired from or alternatively it was acquired in 71. I don't know who Baldwin's 71 or 640 are.
Thanks Rob - looks like Bull downgraded it to R2 in the latest edition, for what it's worth!

This no stops on obv 6d I'm considering comes with 2 tickets, anyone recognise the collector / dealer from them?

Yes, certainly better than the obverse ...

9 hours ago, Sword said:I wasn't just thinking about George V. I think 1887 and 1902 are also generally very well struck. First year of design use new dies. The mint would probably have shown more care.
Neither do I. Will hopefully get one at some point. I love the first George V portrait and none of my current currency specimens has a fully struck observe.
The 1911 proofs are often very nicely toned, due, it is thought by many, to the materials in the box the set came in.
Discussed and shown before, but here's mine - I think it's truly beautiful

Thanks Rob - I think this is the SCMB Listing (XM219):

My first hammered Charles II example, comes with an interesting ticket, expressing £5 5s as £5 1/4 ...
