  1. I remember a block of about a hundred 10/ notes being sold on ebay a few years ago. They are scarcer in large groups as obviously banks gave out larger denominations. The buyer relisted them not long after and i felt really happy as i got them for a lot less and at a cheap price. I paid straight away but the day after he refunded my money and sent me an apology as why putting them in the envelope he had knocked a cup of tea on them........ Pete.
  2. Wouldnt matter if there were problems or the WORLD ended he wouldnt of sold it at a loss.
  3. Started the bidding at £1 with no reserve.............Wind your neck in. Sold for £218 .......Stretch your condom. Wouldnt even have the patience to watch them
  4. Thats really what i mean Matt they can only list it as they see it and they are varieties however you look at it
  5. Not sure about create there own although i can only talk about pennies. Sure they can also only say what is there or they see. I did send one in this batch that has been listed as a new variety for them a 1920 penny. Although the difference was obvious and a relatively low grade they i assume have to list it as different. I have never given details on a form ,so cant really comment on that.
  6. In fairness Matt the graders at cgs are spot on. Occasionally mistakes are made with TPGS but can be rectified quite easily and everyone makes them. Last year i sent over twenty copper penny varieties in one batch, mainly Bramah or not listed. I didnt write down any information as to what i thought /new they were and just let CGS grade them. Although some were rejected(Happens with copper) they spotted everyone. IMO no other TPGS would of spent the time looking at them or in some instances known the variety even existed Pete.
  7. Yes Matt.
  8. Just received this back from CGS was graded 82.
  9. Not got a clue Matt as i wouldnt buy them in the first place and have never sent one. If it was an error though i assume it would be graded as normal if damage from the mint and just listed with all the other errors.
  10. Well after going on about the spot the coin was rejected for Field Damage Will look at the coin when i receive it back as by getting coins rejected i learn more than the ones ok. That is one of the reasons i have sent them to cgs ,not just for the grade but the condition. Fortunately i sent another 1918 that was ok and graded 82 so happy with that one . Pete.
  11. Not the nicest looking penny but one i will always keep. Its the actual coin that was used to illustrate OBV 10 in the Michael freeman book "The victorian bronze penny ".
  12. Dont do that Peter........i have done five week tomorrow without a mouthfull
  13. Think it might be easier to just PHONE them Scott. When i had a problem a while ago they answered straight away ,they were in Ireland and sorted it out .
  14. No Terry i seem to remember something on another thread and checking the few i had and all were normal.
  15. 1903 open 3 penny with the obverse not being so bad compared with others. £100 including postage. Pete.
  16. I didnt expect joyce to win although he won the first round and the second could of gone either way,he could not of done anymore. Rob as far as were is everyone........I am always here
  17. Looking at the cost of flights between 10.00am and 3.00 pm , if i had some that were valuble or was a dealer with a lot think i would just take them.
  18. Thank you for your reply badgerap
  19. Apologies for the photographs I know not many people are interested in them but can only try on here as unable to identify it properly. It appears solid and although its a bad photo that is the colour,its 4 gr and definately obverse B in the Tony barter book. Just to see if anyone has seen one the same. Pete.
  20. I have not received the coin back yet and so only assume the rejection was for corrosion from the spot. Being familiar with... coin in progress... on the site i am sure its been rejected but the reason only given once put in plastic .
  21. The coin is in the UK were it belongs
  22. All the best BHX and HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Have a good day Brian
