PWA 1967

I found someone who had a sealed bag and bought twenty and then told a couple of people i knew who were looking for one , including Michael. Michael telling me they were really hard to find and having a BU one on his site for £100 untill the bag turned up , tells me not many as he had been looking for years.

Wakefield as well is a good one , which when we get back to normal is once a month.

Everytime i have bought Lots from DNW the website has worked really well and always received the day after paying ,obviously geared up properly and Hat off 👍 Well wrapped aswell without all the daft sellotape some Auctioneers and Dealers use ,one lot i bought at an Auction house a couple of weeks ago they just put the coins in bubblewrap all together ,with selloptape wrapped round. I assume the capsules are ones that you gave them with the coins Nick ?

Yes ,some nice coins ,so much so that i bought some 👍

No i didnt say it was a set , its the BU single coin 50p error and just seemed the best thread to put it on.

2 x 2021 Decimal Day 50p Royal Mint Coin packs 1 with 2020 DATE ERROR see pics | eBay This error was on the Royal mint packaging ,although anyone who bought one direct from the Royal mint before the mistake was noticed i believe will be sent a replacement FOC. It says 2020 inside rather than 2021. I have used the eBay link rather than just post a picture and then have to explain.

I think the lighter part at the top of the coin is just a reflection or something due to the photograph of the coin being in plastic. If you not sure though dont buy it 👍 Pictures often look terrible taken in the plastic ,i have an 1856 penny in LCA and the pictures look nothing like the coin in hand.

No those marks are consistent with other marks all over the coin. Have you got the coin in hand ,what did the grading company say ?

Going off the picture i dont think so ,just looks a bit dirty and toned.

CAN YOU TAKE THAT POST OFF PLEASE.

If you had looked at the IMP indicator and not the BRITT one ,you would of been able to tell straight away as clear that it is just a normal one. Most coins have two indicators so if your not sure on one , check the other. Its the same on lots of Bronze and Coppers even if only die cracks ,flaws etc , there are always other indicators if you are not sure.

I looked at that when it was first listed. It is NOT a Gouby X though which is I of IMP points to tooth and thats to gap ,so just a normal one.

I dont have a clue why ,maybe it was in a newspaper 😃 but the 2019 re - issued 50p Kew gardens has started selling for a lot more over the last few days. It was only issued in sets( 5 coins) that people could buy for £22 - 50 off westminster but people the last few days now getting £70 / £80 just for the Kew.

Yes ,i posted as was more incase anyone else reading the thread was not aware that they were on other years who may be interested.

These are all mentioned in the Groom book Terry for 1961, 63,64,65,66 & 67 Missing waves / Short helmet plume and loss of the fold on Britannias gown over the right shoulder.

Thats a really good idea ,use a video done by another grading company and promote them on our facebook group. The video is an NGC one and not there own 😮

Yes thats the one with the same halfpenny ,i should of just looked at prices realised. No i lost interest about 18 months ago , not long after a collector wanted to buy coins that were slabbed in high grade and was a good oportunity to sell a lot for prices i dont think i would of acheived in the near future. I kept some that he either had or i felt were worth keeping ,such as some coppers that are becoming IMO really hard to find in top grades. Being pretty much housebound though not with Covid but illness i still buy things for something to do that i know other people are looking for or to pass on to dealers.

When i used to collect a forum member bid on that same coin for me at LCA about 5 years ago ,remember it selling for about £250 + ,must stand out and not see many for me to remember it 😃

Now online if anyone is interested. Pete.

Some UK sellers may also say it was rare as a DOT penny 😃 I agree though Mike ,unfortunately there will always be sellers whether the coin is slabbed or not asking what we consider to be daft prices. Its just the American market and slowly becoming worldwide is driven by slabbed coins.

1967 GREAT BRITAIN PENNY S-4157 PCGS GENUINE UNC DETAILS QUEST.COLOR BEAUTIFUL | eBay Coincidence as just been listed ,but shows how pictures can be hard to tell from and one that has been cleaned and artificially toned in the opinion of the grading company.

The one mentioned was a 1944 ,45 or 46 i cant remember which that Dave craddock had for sale ,i didnt want it and he sold it another dealer. It was easier to tell even from a scanned picture as should of been fully mint toned rather than oneside MT oneside BU and was therefore not natural toning or cleaning. Sometimes i believe the blanks / coins may stick together for mint toning ,leaving them partially or fully MT to only oneside. I did have a 1932 that i bought off Dave craddock that was mint toned but passed it on to a forum member. That i believe was a MT blank / coin in error that was mixed in with normal ones or possibly part of a trial for 1934 . Although some years are often hard to tell from a photograph as may of just naturally toned ,such as some pennies we see described as proof like.

He was on the set up TV programme Pawn stars ,trying to sell a Roman thing ,that apparently he knew nothing about 😃

Just looks like an O to me ,either the coin is damaged or the O is partly blocked.

Not sure if you are including coppers Richard as there are a few varieties scarce in high grade but the 1843 NO Colon better than VF is really hard to find.
