I don't think BCC has the same 3 that Paul has I think he's referring to a different error. However if they were not removed before being released to circulation there is most definitely more, unless the workers stand and stare at the coins as they come out (which they don't) there would have been more than just a handful struck.

When does your bookstore open Pete?

Looks a bit too similar in size to the penny's Y to me. How much smaller would a halfpenny Y be? I have none to compare.

I was cleaning up some stuff, must have clicked on new activity just as you posted

Definitely Y over Y. The bars wouldn't meet at the bottom if they continued on their path, so it couldn't be a V.

I laughed so much harder than I should have at that. That arm though

Looks to be right Terry. Either die clash or ghosting, I would go with ghosting, however, as it was so common on this series.

Hi Sergio, you should introduce yourself here and let us know what you collect you've posted a couple of videos but the coins are all very different!

I'd concur, that or some sort of brooch

Inversely, please do send your.. ahem.. figures. The UNC F139 in that last auction went for around £100 iirc pm me Kip..

Depends if, as a dealer, you sell all your stock through auction houses. If not then I wouldn't remove the commission because you're effectively reducing the price of the coin by 20%.

Chancing it? More like looking for a miracle. That's a £130-150 coin

A dealer that you don't know of Pete? I don't believe you..

Then you've answered your own question really, there isn't much information on UNC grades for the ones you're looking for. Personally I wouldn't disregard prices over 2 years old for items that seldom come to market, they at least will give you an idea of the market. Also, as a bidder, when I make a purchase through an auction house I make my bid taking commission into account as I think a lot of others do, I don't think removing the commission price is giving you a true figure IMO. Especially so in the case of rarer items that receive much higher bids than your run-of-the-mill coins.

Hi Kip, best bet is check auction archives like www.londoncoins.com or www.spink.com. That's a long list of coins for people to dig through their notes. You might get lucky though!

I see these in the old monthlies and some of the prices then... Nowadays you've gotta sift through the literal crap to find anything good

No problem, made more sense to scan as it came to work. Not much in there that we didn't already know, but always good to read the studies.

Sorry about that, fixed it. Just quantities, rarity.

Here you go gents. Happy reading.

Excellent coin indeed and congratulations, a very clean example.

I mean for insurance purposes, proof of purchase and all that jazz.

Can you backtrack for receipts? As in, I don't have receipts but I have a full list of the date I bought which coin, how much I paid and where I got it from..
