  1. If he is making a killing Dave why dont you do it.I dont see he is doing anything wrong and must be plenty people just want to send a couple and happy to pay a bit more ? If he is doing a lot i imagine he must get pow fagged to death if they are not returned in a couple of weeks
  2. Yes........Its like the sixpence that sold at auction in 2009 for just over £4K and a few months after sold for over £100k nobody obviously expected that to happen and everyone had the opportunity to buy it first time round. Different auction and a different day.........Although a bit of an exception to the rule 😊
  3. Yes the gap is the first one i look at. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/George-V-1913-One-Penny-Coin-Collectors-King-George-5th-/202639009952?nma=true&si=RoK94v15yq838hgYv7cnTr69aSs%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Maybe all the posts on here about 1913 pennies even sellers are checking them now ,this Rang F175 was listed and taken off straight away a couple of days ago although not really worth much more than a couple of £.
  4. Yes i looked at the large picture through a glass and sure i can see the H. Its one coin i think i will always be happy not to have , as would constantly have doubts if it really was one.
  5. Another good indicator Ian. OBV 1..... I of IMP to space OBV 2......I of IMP to tooth.
  6. That would make it a F177 Ian . Although unsure what REV you mean ? Its OBV 2 though.
  7. Yes Mike.....Dave would not of had regulars and people buying off a list for over thirty years if the coins were overgraded or wrongly described. He is one of the really good honest dealers that i have dealt with and helped me fill numerous gaps ,upgrades over the last couple of years. Mark rassmussen is another who grades honestly and i would buy without a picture , just his description over the phone. Some Dealers though are living on a different planet IMO and think they do it more as a hobby and not bothered if they sell a coin or not. The pictures from ingram were spot on as they showed that the coins were not very good and saved you having to return them 😊
  8. https://www.cooperscoins.com/collections/crown The sellers own website.
  9. Dave runs his business by going to every show and trying to turn the coins over quickly and will only do a list when there is not a show for a couple of weeks. I would bet if anyone goes to a coin show he will be there and from what i am told seems to get busy when the doors open which i feel is because he is always buying and his prices are fair. I am not sure ingrams work the same way and maybe just put things on a website and sit and wait for someone to buy something ,i cant take a coin dealer seriously who is grading and trying to sell 1933 pennies.
  10. As it says by the artist who did the cards , hope you have not missed out on a set 😂
  11. Yes.......Its starting to get on my nerves now 😂
  12. Yes.When i was doing some research i found this link quite interesting.Not just pennies but other denominations ,some of which have been asked about previously on here. https://www.dnw.co.uk/auction-archive/special-collections/foreword.php?specialcollection_id=160 If anyone is interested you can click on the tab at the bottom and some have footnotes as well as descriptions. I believe there are a few others about ,but as i mentioned just a bit different.
  13. https://www.tokenpublishing.com/ There isnt a link Eric as its a pay for magazine although you can purchase an email copy for just a couple of pound.This cant be shared though as will only work as far as i am aware from the email address its purchased from .To see what the format is like though first you can have a look FOC at a previous issue.
  14. One thats a bit different (daft ) that i bought last week. A couple of other different types have been touted about recently but only wanted one 😉
  15. No Terrry St.James...........I was told the estimate was £80 -£90 K but not sure if he was just guessing 😉
  16. I have noticed the 1952 Proof penny is for auction in June and will be interesting to see the price it sells for ☺️
  17. Yes Jerry as he has done numerous times before i think he just makes them up as he lists them anything that it rare for the year will do.
  18. It has been with two numbers ,first the 5 and then an 8 the second strike a correction that was not done firm enough IMO. The first 5 being entered as again should of been done in reverse the third number on a coin would be the second to look at on the die.
  19. What appears to look underneath on a coin is on top on the die as the die is reversed i.e. the field part is the highest point on the die. All sounds a bit back to front 😶
  20. Yes nothing wrong with the coin if its what your looking for , it just seemed a bit early for buying christmas presents.
  21. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/OLD-BRITISH-VICTORIAN-PENNY-COPPER-COIN-1876-UNUSUAL-XMAS-GIFT-COLLECTORS-ITEM/273763552518?hash=item3fbd944d06:g:ZQQAAOSwmphaGR0q Christmas come early 😮
  22. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDsZHJs5Z3U Go to about 20.00 a mate of mines brother...............☺️
  23. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1957-Trial-Britannia-Moneta-Star-Stainless-Steel-PCGS-MS66/123624505135?hash=item1cc8983f2f:g:YR0AAOSwqeZamuf4 Not a worse offering but maybe someone can help me please. I have seen these before but can anyone tell me why they were struck please and what they are supposed to represent. I just put the link here as was the same seller as one above ......I must also mention as he is a forum user i dont have a problem with either 😉
  24. I have just googled and read about Exeter change Will and found it interesting ,i didnt know that we even had an elephant over here that long ago .Not just about the time years ago but how the building has changed etc to todays new building on The Strand. I had never thought about these tokens before ☺️ Do you know an approximate year of the token ?
