I have a 2+B. I think its probably a UNC but could be a proof. Looks way better than my 2+A in my set. Got a piccy but size limit here not big enough to upload from phone

Does the date example with the bright blue background, belong to you?
Yep,

On 1/14/2023 at 6:56 PM, 1949threepence said:Given my recent purchase of a BMC 2088 Moore pattern/model penny, dated 1844, I thought I would list on here, all the BMC 2088 specimens I could find after research, before I forget or lose the piece of paper I wrote them down on. It might prove of use or interest at some point.
1/ Freeman auction 23.10.84, lot 252, £380 hammer, ex Foster (October 1953), ex Peck (date not known). Condition given as EF.
2/ DNW auction 14.12.04, lot 1025, £440 hammer, no provenance stated. Condition given as EF, but poor photography. Not convinced it's quite EF.
3/ Copthorne auction, May 2016, lot 216, £850 hammer, no provenance stated. Condition given as UNC. Looks pretty much the same as mine, which I'd class as GEF.
4/ LCA auction 5.6.22, lot 1817, £240 hammer, no provenance stated. Condition given as VF.
5/ The one I've just bought, January 2023, from Tim Medhurst, no provenance stated. Condition GEF with residual lustre. The reverse is not inverted - don't know about the others in this respect. .
6/ Noonans upcoming auction 1.2.23, estimate £300 - £400. No provenance stated. Condition given as GVF, I'd say closer to plain VF.
Peck also mentions BMC 2087, which is the same as BMC 2088, but all brass. Not seen one of this type.
*****************************************************************************************************************
There was also a mule version sold by LCA on 3.3.19, lot 1234, for £360 hammer, no provenance stated. Condition given as NEF. Date on the obverse, "model" on the reverse.
Only top one could be mine as i purchased it in 2014

Ok so idiot here had his catalog of coins on an excel spreadsheet with no backups, and the PC has now died
I don’t plan on replacing the PC but rely on my ipad. Unfortunately from what i can see excel is a subscription service if you want to edit a document
So what are the options?
-
How has that happened
-
Ignore me i was looking up 1864 not 1964 😂
-
Cheers all. Im a bit wiser
-
Other than CGS own references i cant find it listed. Doesnt tie up with a freeman as farcas i can tell. Bugging me 😂

Evening all
just been sorting through my coins and came across this 1897
I purchased it from london coin auction years ago
the obverse and reverse are offset to each othe by about 20 degrees is this common ?
also what do they mean by 9.5 teeth
cheers

Flat and boring, no artistic measure to the design, close to being just functional
-
Thats a stunning coin
I don't have a F69 just a F73

Personally i would keep clear of those book wallet things
These are cheap and good plus you can write details on the envelope
loop and scales seem ok be carefull putting coins on metal
some cotton gloves could be usefull
-
And the quality of the coins is shockingly poor, drab meaningless designs and poor quality control.So many flaws it's shameful
-
The year might be common, but that grade is rarely common, nice coin

Cheers all ordered the soft back for now as i seem to destroy hard back books

Would like all to be honest , but die details and legend varieties should be a start cheers

Evening all im looking for some good literature on Elizabeth first coins, mostly about shillings
cheers
-
yep thats the one , i watched the prices drop year by year
-
Cheers thats what i thought, i was wondering why people think there valuable, seems like the 20p all over
-
Hi all i've been asked at work what a50p Beatrix Potter coins worth as they are on ebay for £1k plus. But as far as i can see they have not actually sold any, so whats the reasoning for these coins being rare and valuable
