  1. Hadn't spotted any verd problems Pete, I wouldn't have bid if I had - it just had eye appeal for me and was a good price imo ... yes, slabbed as CGS 78 ex NGC MS64 BN ... have I blundered here?
  2. Unusual for me to acquire a penny, but I did today
  3. Would just like to say I like the new web site Rob
  4. The results are in - and no rejects! Some very close / spot-on guesses Here's the grades assigned 1899 crown: CGS 70 finest known (dies 2E) 1707 halfcrown: CGS 25 1911 halfcrown: CGS 92 1911 florin: CGS 85 1902 florin: CGS 82 1736 shilling: CGS 40 (new variety M over M in M.B. on reverse) 1911 shilling: CGS 91 1674 sixpence CGS 50
  5. Hi Eddie My guesses as to what CGS would grade them: Vickie sov CGS 70 Willie HC CGS 55-60 Vickie HC CGS 70 Do be sure that none of the show any signs of cleaning dipping, else they will be rejected and CGS will not refund your fee. From the pics alone the Vickie HC has a suggestion of dipping? What do you think 'in hand'?
  6. If we're doing coin nicknames, there is also the Joey (3d) and the Quid (£1)
  7. Bit a lot more patchy but nice to my eyes
  8. Thanks Pete, it's been a long journey!
  9. Thanks Nons, I really believe so too!
  10. Never knowingly undersold (whatever that means)
  11. The bidding is just silly, can't be genuine bids, would be my guess - as to why, no idea!
  12. There are other English pre decimal coins too, other than the ones Peter listed. May be worth mentioning the Groat (4d - 1/3 of a shilling) and the Half Groat (2d)
  13. Yes, there is still a classic called the 1000 Guineas, and another called the 2000 Guineas - just historic names I think, from when that was the prize money
  14. Out of interest, do either of your tablets have a macro facility?
  15. GVF for me too, from the pics alone (of course) ... needs a better lion's face for EF imo
  16. I'd also agree with Swanny's grading assessment
  17. Have a cigar on me
  18. I've yet to attend myself Stuntman, but every 3 months they have more dealers and more space, December being the next of those
  19. Welcome Nojo Looks like an A to me
  20. OMG he's got one of those as well !!!!
