PWA 1967

I bought in august lot 1735 from l.c.a. a box of printing blocks ,they were for The bronze coinage of great britain by michael freeman.They are big copper and nice looking ,i only purchased the lot for the pennies,however some are farthings and half pennies.The first five regular members who p.m. there address will send you one completely FREE.These are unique and described that way in the l.c.a description Nice to be nice . Wont however post abroad and you need to have made atleast 40 posts . Be lucky and all the best. Pete

Can i ask coinery with all your nice coins why you use a private listing.Surely that may put people off and cant see any benefits?

Why would you have it re done .Looks spot on to me its the coin/piece surely that s relevant does it not cost anything at the fun show.What is the FUN show made me smile,cant imagine the same name given to one in england.

Hi damian . Would be keen to see a photo if possible . Thanks pete.

alternatively whizzed a small brush ,like an electric toothbrush.One big and well known ebay seller a couple of months ago bought one and showed it on his ebay history..Months ago i got told about one seller who puts dust of some kind on his images and although looks really good on copper and bronze.When the coin arrives not the same eye appeal

english is my first language but still struggle with it

One of the real laurillier is on the colin cooke site.Just go into the site and click on pennies the pictures are still up

Yes its a copy ,they originate from gary phelps

The advice was that they are not worth anything

Sorry got you mixed up with someone else mh coins.The story is the same i personally get cgs view/grading on most and that has turned up some different varieties ,rejects,finest known with them.I am happy to pay the service they provide,and if they are rejected then i like to no why.A lot of the other dealers do not pick up on the varieties the same and just concentrate on grade.Only last week i bought a ms65 ,graded unc 78 with cgs. and was cheap and a nice coin,it also had interest from a couple of forum members as was the finest known even at 78.English pennies sent to cgs suit me and what i want , i have no intention of selling any.The main thing is the quality and sending pennies to cgs giving me peace of mind .APOLOGIES for any bad spelling ,or if i did not explain properly.

You have a nice range of pennies mh.Can i ask if i bought them and they were downgraded would you accept them back . allowing that it might take a month.The sellers i deal with have all been honest and in some instances due to c.g,s took a refund.My feeling are c.g.s give an honest independent opinion.That for a novice like me who spends money is happy about.As i said to cgs last week your not there to look after the grade just be independent and tell me the truth,although that is what i pay them for.Independent sellers miss varieties and overgrade that is a fact more often than not a lot of coins sent to cgs are rejected.If i had not dealt with reputable dealers and not sent coins to cgs i could of been buying rubbish.You have some lovely looking coins ,some i have seen in previous auctions.The point is i will pay for a £1000 coin to be told its ok,and although mistakes are still made i have a second opinion thats better than most

How much was that rob ?>

Think your comment of more accurate and only talking of pennies the varieties is surely what counts.I dont intend selling mine they will be left .But i no i am not leaving a box of rubbish in a safe building up dust.I have numerous pennies sold to me by reputable dealers who missed varieties etc.

Dont worry about the pictures.So long as your happy with it . Be lucky. Pete

Yes got to agree ,especially after sending so many anyway suppose you learn and not a big deal.Talking of c.g.s./london coins one of the coins i purchased at the last auction i phoned on receipt to say it was miss attributed.They said you should view the coins in hand and as i replied its not always possible however it was the wrong DATE.

Yes you are right azda and that is the reason they gave me,when i phoned them regarding something else.

The invoice came direct to myself with the uin numbers last thursday after having the coins almost a month.Although normally received them back after about 4-5 weeks in the past.

Feel a bit disappointed as a mate dropped off over twenty coins for grading a month ago.Only just this week had any acknowledgement they had got them. Not even took the photos yet and although no big deal,not very good.

No problem.Glad you received it ok and hope its good enough

sory mean : colon dots to a tooth

Not sure what you mean ,sorry .The i needs to line up directly with a tooth.

No problem , will be sent tomorrow.Cross it off your list as its a good one and please let me no when you receive it . I am in spain so asked my son to post it. Be lucky . Pete.

Buy and enjoy collecting and keep smiling dont look at the investment as no gaurantee.The experts might make a good few quid and good look to them.I go with the opinion you have an interest and makes it interesting.If you do ok all the better but spending money on coins for an investment NO

altered date ,you got a real one coinery ?.

not yet ,although was in ireland for the boxing at the weekend and now in spain ,so not really been looking.A forum member was kind enough to let me no about one on ebay,but it got withdrawn .
