ok, thanks

hi all i have a 1903 one rupee india ,edward vii coin,but its embedded into a silver tin,just wondering if its worth anything ,i would appreciate everyones comments thanks.

thank you,i posted a picture of some of what i inherited,what do u think would be my best option with these if/when i decide to sell,please if you dont mind,after all ye are there to help newcomers

here are some other coins/sets i inherited.

here are some of the collection that was left to me.... i said i would put them up

just a bit sarcastic in my eyes though....... im a newbie... no worries

my uncle was a coin collector aswel as my great grandad and i have inheritedthere collections.sorry if that offends you rob

i thought it was the first strike pound coin and that maybe it was gold..

ok guys,thanks for replies

hi everyone, i came across this pound coin in my great grandads collection and he has it sealed and i am wondering if any body no's if there is something special about ity or not i just dont know why he would have it sealed if its nothing...... thanks

great, thanks. i will put them up at some point 2morr,im off to bed now 4 wrk in morning , good nite zzzz.

yes i understand all that part of it,thanks.prob going to have to get it slabbed so then i know 100 per cent if its fake or real.i will post up a few pictures of coins,old notes etc that i have,just need to get them sorted and put on my laptop.

i have a load of pennies ,george iii,william cartwheel 2p's,george v, victoria ,dating between 18 and 19 century.

i got left a load of my great grandads stuff and he was a collector,but since i came across this scarborough coin i became very interested about any coins,their markings,errors etc...its very interesting ,i found out alot i never used to know.i also got some proof soveriegns,commemorative crowns,and loads more others ,all in sets.i might put them in the londoncoins auction ,which i think is held in march coming.i would like to sell them for bullion prices coz i know there are worth a lot more.

thank you...wishing all a happy xmas and new year,dont worry i will let you know the outcome.

thanks very much peter for your reply and yes i agree that is the best thing for me to do. thank you once again.

thanks ever so much for everyones opinions bout the coin,im not getting stressed over it one bit.thats the first time i just saw the r d on the coin in d pic,but i can not see it when in my hand...strange i no...so does anyone know what the r d might mean on it?

i appreciate everyones replies but it looks nothing like the 2588 in the post,its S D ,not R D or K D . Heres another 2 pictures of coin.

its more likely to be electrum ,approx its 4.3grams

There is no rd next to the castle on the coin i have , there is however surface engraved a big burning cross scaresly visable unless magnified times 40 all the practicle test that will not damage the piece have been done , and its holding up i believe tht there is alot of hidden meanings and symbols on the coin unvisable to the naked eye , its only so clean because my partner cleaned it with a horse hair brush he hates dirt . (OCD) .

thank you very much,all the shops that i have shown this coin too have tried to buy it ,they all claim to be experts....@what?

i have had a look at that page and its nothing similar to the coin i have.thanks

what makes you think its not genuine?

My great grandad had it in his safe and he past away bout 2yr ago.he lived in newark ,beacon hill ,he found that coin over 50yrs ago out his own bk garden with cannon balls and musket shot with his metal detector.newark castle was sieged and bombarded by cromells round heads and grandad always used to say they were from the round heads.im having trouble posting more pictures up at the mintute so i will try again after.
