Yes, Bill is the Chair of the CGS Forum and FB Group 'Coin Grading Services (CGS) Collectors', I spoke with him the other day ... expect some 'developments'
-
Thanks all for your kind comments on my pics - I have spent countless hours, and doubtless many more to come! My current (if not yet final) configuration has has some very minor tweaks, which seem to make one neck of a difference! I will post details shortly. This Maundy set accompanies (and matches) the crown - sixpence proof set set I bought and posted about - they are a bugger to get good pics of
-
Also agree with 2691, if their estimates are correct and it goes for just 20% more than the other 3, it's a no-brainer to me -
-
-
Thanks Bob I will also post individually as the pic sizes do not seem to work otherwise, been a labour of love!
-
Spent ages on these this evening, comments invited on my best pics of my recent 1902 proof crown - sixpence set
-
VF for me too, as you first thought Chaps - need to see the rev though
-
Yes they've had a 're-think' - and not the last I'll wager
-
Lovely example
-
Brilliant work Seuk!
-
Yes, that's the one, the one below will be the proof, far more valuable! "Included with Gothic" simply relates to the mintage figures, which are given by year, not type / variety (or even the date on the coin!), back in the day
-
Not at all, novices, and all and any questions, are extremely welcome! You may be looking a guide prices for a proof, I would expect the circulating 1887 Jubilee head florin to be the first item listed in that section. My latest CCGB (2014) has it at just £40 in UNC Edit: PS - ignore, and do not be intimidated by, the 'Forum God' nonsense - it's automatic after a certain number of posts
-
Spink 2015 has it at £85 in full UNC - what book are you using?
-
It appears to be a problem-free high grade example, in aUNC - easy to find in this grade but not for £6 + change - and of course this is an auction with over a day to go, you cannot just buy it at the current price!
-
Fine on the rev, maybe slightly better, less than F on the obverse As Peter suggests, plenty of high grade examples available
-
Yes, plenty, Colin Cooke, swcoins, buckscoins, to name but 3, all sell on eBay as well as on their own dedicated web sites and at fairs ... there are many others I use. Normally you will get what you are after cheaper by buying directly, as eBay fees are eliminated. Are you focussing on anything in particular yet?
-
Dealers' web sites, coin fairs, proper coin auctions - all with far superior stock and reliability compared to 99% of eBay. There are a number of highly recommended dealers on here, depending on your collecting focus and budget. I would not go out of my way to recommend the dealer you cite, from personal experience. Feel free to run a potential purchase past the experienced and helpful bunch on here, before you buy!

It's under 'Settings' @IanB

Hi Ian I also use Wordpress for my collection, like Santa I didn't trawl through all the themes, just picked one I liked and that was easy to use. I use 'Twenty Fourteen', which is a 'responsive' theme, meaning that it will adapt to any viewing environment (PC/laptop/tablet/smart phone)
-
Welcome Chapps, Fine (F) for me
-
And better pics of this one
-
Better grade Masonic halfpenny token
