PWA 1967

Thats a lovely coin bob .......But the other guy who wants 2K ...

I think its the same coin and well found Richard

Thanks Dave........although thats gone over my head ,probably one of the reasons i never passed any exams

Sorry to ask but not my thing Why was the counterstamp put on please ?. Pete.

Yes agreed Ian,although could go on forever Another pointer on copper is the high points having a silver colour is a give away that its had a good rub

As an add on some coins show signs of things that are due to storage issues and one side a different colour. These have not been cleaned but will show as greenish colour /lines, marks and oxidisation mainly with copper . Suppose this needs a thread of its own but signs of blue on bronze or sheen from laquer are better looked at twice.

More often than not Ian from my limited experience a cleaned coin (on bronze) will show even colour and shine that is different than lustre . Also the letters maybe different as not cleaned inside/around etc. Overall though the coin will be shiny if thats the right word or dull but all the same colour. Alternatively you will spot small patches were the coin has been worked on specific parts. Under 20X magnification and gently moving the coin will show residue or signs such as rubbing ,minute scratches. Hard to tell from pictures sometimes You will also notice dark patches or alternatively the coin being a pink colour were it has been treated with an acid based product (vinegar)or patches from something like verdicare. Pete.

I dont think its cleaned for what my opinion is worth

Most of the 1905,1906 are weak to the reverse Mike even if BU.

Yes thats why i checked Matt and was definately the same coin .

After David had been messed around i got intouch with the seller . I told him i would collect the coin and pay cash and we agreed a price He explained he would be in touch on his return from holiday. A week or so later he got in touch to say he had sold it for £1,500.00............So yes its b*****ks

Strange but as of yesterday my messages i now get notifications of via email after not doing for a couple of weeks

That coin was mine Matt and made me check the colin cooke photo which is were i bought it. Definately an early strike and although really nice its not proof.....remember talking to Neil about it why in his office

Shows how much i know looks UNC to me and a lovely coin

Not a recent purchase but one i have not posted before. 1847 Def Far Colon Pete.

AA01 put away as will be worth a bit more soon. The others unless a good number that are collectable ,solid,repeat,low etc.........send them to me AA01......... Why they gave you a few at the bank my Mrs was probably getting some aswell . Although she has probably spent them by now.....so have the other thousands of people getting them every second. Be lucky and check the numbers. Pete.

£29.00 and £1 for me

Thanks and why i posted straight after my intial post not needing a reply Pete.

Not any need to answer the question UPINSPOKE

Sorry to interupt your thread but can i ask how long it took from the time you sent it please

Well he musnt of been that happy with the idea........Can only offer

Not a problem. I wasnt trying to be greedy just saving him messing around

In fact i will pay you for all four straight away so you can get rid of them. If any other forum members want one i will pass on.......seems easier than messing about. Will give you £80 for them. Pete.

I am in the uk and will have one you can post Matts to me in the same packet and i will forward it on to him ,so not a problem there I will pay for both so thats two sold.

Kate hopes so
