auction has just finished and i bought it for £7 inc delivery. Just wondering it says Ag999 on it and i found no info about them being made in silver. Not even one photo etc. Anyway thanks for all your help

Hi, can someone help me with this coin? I cant find much on google... It says Ag 999 on it and 2 or 3 other i found on internet(ebay) were not silver. Does it make it special? And how much would be reasonable to pay for it? Thanks

Hello everyone, just a quick one What year young head shilling in EF or better will be cheapest to buy? Thanks

Right, just checked it. Says 7.96g. Soooo.... is that still ok?

Yes i bought a scale on ebay couple of days ago, should get it this week. All the others sovereigns i have are cgs slabbed and only one more young head and all the details look the same. You see the pictures i took: first obverse, then i turn it around 180 degrees and took the picture of the reverse and as you can see its a bit off. Thats the only thing. All the rest is ok i guess. Will check the weight soon:) BTW sorry for my english... its frustrating when im trying to explain something and it doesnt work...

Hi, i just realised that one of my sovereigns is a bit funny... its one of them coin alignment sovereigns but obverse/reverse is not 180 degrees but more like 200-210 degrees(or 150-160:) thas that mean its a fake or is it just a mint error os something? sorry for poor pictures but thats the best i can do with my camera. Thanks

Ive got last 2 or 3 Collectors Coins GB, same with Coin yearbooks. Guide to Grading British Coins and one Coin monthly yearbook from 1968:) And many Coin News magazines... Now after i read those and this Forum archives, seen thousands of coins on ebay and dealers' websites and spent couple grand on some rubish coins from farthings to sovereigns i decided i like 19th/early 20th century silver the most. That made me realise that i should read more books first. So i need something specific about english silver before i start spending money again Ah, and whats the best place to buy them? eBay? Thanks

Hello, what books would you recommend about Victoria-GV silver? English silver Coinage i guess. Anything else? Thanks

1945 English

Yea sorry for the photo quality, thats the best i can do with my camera. And thanks for your replies.

Hello everyone, just a qiuck one. I bought some shillings couple of days ago and this one sticks out. Has this coin been cleaned? Or is just in good nick? Thanks and have a nice evening.

Thanks for your replies. I feel better now:) Thanks

And reverse...

Hello again, i just bought this 1902 crown from one of the dealers was told its gF. Can someone please let me know if its really gF? Thank you

Hi, ive just checked COA and it says BU on it...

Hello again, had a very busy time at work plus busy Christmas so no time to reply:) These 50ps are silver BU not proof. Im not sure about dipping them as i have never done it before. Can i get some advice? What to buy how to do it? And is there a risk of damaging a coin? I dont want to take a risk. As for Royal Mint. They offered me two coins free of charge and i agreed. All the best

Hi everyone, this is my first post on this forum but ive been checking this website for couple of years. I have a quick question. I buy silver 50p coins from Royal Mint. Theyve been sending me one every month (at least they supposed to) and i have 15 att the moment. Couple days ago ive noticed that the older ones have brown spots on them and one or two are quite bad. I never opened a capsule and i store them all in a box. So, my question is am i doing something wrong or is it Royal Mints fault and i can complain about it? And get it exchanged for example? Thanks
