    Great. Thanks for that.
  2. Michael-Roo
    Any idea what this may be?
  3. Michael-Roo
    Along with dehydrated sea monkeys and specs which allowed you to see the bones in your hand.

    Cuds-a-plenty on this one.
  6. Michael-Roo
    Thanks Stu. Yes, that certainly would be a possibility.

    Any thoughts regarding what appears to be a letter A in the reverse field here?
  8. Michael-Roo
    A full set. Apologies for sloppy typing.

    Here you are Mike. The difference in colour is due to light conditions. There's no difference 'in hand'. £175 delivered? A cast iron bargain.

    Has anyone here seen one of these? We were at a friend's house the other day and, knowing I'm into coins, he showed me this blue purse containing at full set of four 1901 maundy coins. It belonged to an aunt but no one knows how she came to own it/them. I've not seen a purse like this before but do know the coins would have originally been distributed in little drawstring bags.
  11. Michael-Roo
    No, but will take one when I have time.

    Lovely for detail but clearly polished within an inch of its life. I bought this one on eBay a couple of years ago for £175 inc P&P. They're out there if you're willing to wait.

    I wonder who 'Marshall' was?
  15. Michael-Roo
    Him.

    'Boom, boom' Chris. Very good.

    For comparison here are two 1679 3rd bust crowns sold by LCA. The first they graded Fine, the second Very Fine.
  20. Michael-Roo
    You're very welcome Weaver. I'd grade Fine. Maybe one or two other members here may like to offer their assessment?
  21. Michael-Roo
    Hi Weaver, Third bust. One thing: on downloading your photo I noticed part of the jpeg title says 1679 VF. This coin isn't VF.
  22. Michael-Roo
    To clarify: List price was £98 plus p&p, but the seller was offering a seasonal 10% discount on all coins so my total, for a very nice good fine Gouby X, was £91. And I still have the one I'd grade fine, also bought from eBay a couple of years ago, for £1.50 inc p&p.

    Throw another lentil into the stewpot mother for tonight we live like kings!

    I think this is the one Blakey means: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/THE-BIG-George-V-PENNY-AUCTION-1911-Penny-as-shown-Low-START-/294648763044?hash=item449a6f52a4%3Ag%3AtW0AAOSwFCBhtJ~q&nma=true&si=x5XhPMN40oppHpvvgkGwNxXi%2Fvs%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

    Today I bought one, grading a tad lower, for £91 inc p&p. Still a nice bargain and I'm happy with it. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1911-Penny-Rare-Hollow-Neck-Variety-George-V-as-shown-/115160689644?hash=item1ad01cabec%3Ag%3AzE4AAOSwck9hyyWb&nma=true&si=x5XhPMN40oppHpvvgkGwNxXi%2Fvs%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
