looks like mm tun (1592-1595) Sixth Issue 1582 - 1600 (s.2577) i cant enlarge the images enough but overall looks like a good coin

Hello! Please answer my two questions about the following coin: 1) is it as I think Charles I, gold Unite, Tower mint, S.2688? 2) what do you think about a price of it? Sorry didn't see the above (1) yes appears to be (2) around 2,000 assuming its problem free

nice coin

Also look at the space on the obverse (left of the picture) between the outer beading on yours. The above example from the old plate has no excess flan.

I would also suggest that the GEF grade given, is rather generous judging by the pictures. Unless this is a common issue with 1840 halfcrown, there appears to be very little detail on the Reverse shield lions and harps

yes its a nice coin but IMO thats an awful picture

yours looks better, i'd say they aren't the same

Thats ridiculous, the problem we have with this alternative grading scale is it simply confuses the buyers. For example MS63 (PCGS / NGC) for a milled coin is not uncirculated, Uncirculated beings at MS64. The levels which a coin is considered GEF is IMO 61 - 63

that would grade EF, yet from experience most CGS coins i've crossed graded tend to be one grade lower. Choice UNC MS66 - MS70 90-100 UNC MS64 - MS65 82-90 About UNC MS62 - MS63 80 GEF MS60 - MS61 75-78 EF AU58 - MS60 65-70 NEF AU55 55-60 GVF AU53 45-50 VF AU50 40 NVF EF45 35 GF VF35 - EF40 25-30 F VF20 - VF30 20

This is outrageous ! How can they get away with this kind of thing !

I'm guessing CGS must be a burden, otherwise why would they be looking into possibly selling? Perhaps its not profitable ? I don't believe CGS's existence is based upon LC's premises and staff (all 3 or 4 of them). i think it would be pretty easy to take over if you wanted too. However if someone here in the Uk was interested in doing a grading service, it would be much better to start up one from fresh and do so on the Sheldon scale. Would be a whole lot cheaper than buying a "non profitable" company from someone at the absurd amount being mentioned. The equipment cant be that expensive either

no new management in place yet i was told They apparanetly "cant cope with the demand of grading and running an auction every 3 months"

Thank God Leadsom's quit !

def' penalty, shouldn't have had his hands up either. France win 2 - 1

Most have either left or handed in their notice at Baldwins. Steve has something lined up however i don't feel its my place to announce it just yet

Also i don't believe all out voters are racist, of course not that would be stupid to presume, however this vote IMO has allowed and given people with these views a platform and lets them think its ok now to be rascist. I have witnessed whether it is on Social media or in the outside world this happening. This minority represent a big cultural issue and in certain areas of this country this will only spread. A friend of mines child was called "Gready Gorilla" at school last week because she eats all her lunch and then the other kid said "my dad voted out go home". This was a 7 year olds conversation.

I agree Corbyn has increased Labour membership numbers, but the majority are these £3 membership people, not real labour members/followers.

Hi, Anyone with one that they'd sell ?

EU Trade Commissioner: No trade talks until full Brexit http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-eu-referendum-36678222

A watershed EU summit has ended with a clear rejection of special treatment for the UK. on.ft.com/294VD5w

From my understanding many British laws such as the "Good Friday" agreement includes provisions based on the European Court of Human Rights, all of these are going to require re-writing, in turn will consume years of parliamentary time, divert precious public resources to battalions of lawyers, and jeopardise the effective governance of our country.

Pretty certain thats what this man would have in mind

Aren't most British Laws (made since the 70's) intertwined with the EU, now we are leaving i presume all these laws will need rewriting. The likelihood of leaving after the set 2 year period is 0% in my eyes, going to ramble on much longer Much simpler in times gone by, only took England 3 months to become a commonwealth after Charles I was executed

we are hardly in a strong position to blackmail anyone

thats a very good point @scott.
