Hey guys, Ive got a load of predecimal coins. Including some silver. I also have roman stuff and some foreign stuff and a lonely Barbados $1 which is a chunk of pure silver. PM me for details on things. Also, this vicky: Perty, aint it? Id call it mint state, but its a bit toned. Lets call it uncirculated - the coin is basically free of marks and has original surfaces. Thats a premo coin, right there. And if you buy it, I will hand write a thank you note and give you the known provenance for it. For an extra £20, I will do a small dance - for an extra £200, ill film it.

Thanks for the replies - I cant see any wear, thats probably just my sucky photography skills. £200 is a very fair offer and ill have to talk it over with the owner - Any other offers are welcome.

Thanks for the replies guys, heres a better picture. The thing is really dirty - Is there any reliable way of cleaning it without 'cleaning' it? I hear Verdicare works well, but id be concerned with using it. Any knocks are probably from when all the coins were poured out of the tin. Theres a small dent on the neck, but it doesnt look like recent damage, I think it came like that: Couldnt spot any marks on the obverse: So, how should I remove the gunk, or should I leave that to the buyer? Is it worth removing before posting for sale? What grade am I looking at here?

I got to look through a veritable hoard of coins. It had all sorts in it (the best being an 1874S sovereign amongst a load of manky pennies). I was asked to try and sell whatever I could and I can take a cut as commission! Heres the most curious one, posted on CCF: (as a note I didnt want to handle it, so I put it in this holder, its been transferred now as I reckon this thing is PVC:) So, a mint state 1875 penny - whats it worth? How should I sell it? Does anyone here want it, that would save me a lot of hassle.
