    Did you sell them already? How much?
  2. CartwheelTwopence
    What a fantastic coin!!!
  3. CartwheelTwopence
    Yeah, its probably only worth a few pounds unless it is in quite good condition (eg, has lots of detail)
  4. CartwheelTwopence
    Other than that, it's mostly fine! I tend to buy cheap, sell... still quite cheap!

    I once swapped a beautiful, EF 1935 crown for probably less than its scrap value in useless bullion. I thought because it was older it was better. Now its looking £7 for the bullion, £30 for the crown.

    Gothic crown, proof Gold. Only 1 exists; it sold for £11,000 in 1988. That means, what, £50,000 now? £100,000?
  7. CartwheelTwopence
    I really like the George IV Half crowns with the floral design (1820 & 1821), but my favorite is the very beautiful Gothic crowns.
  8. CartwheelTwopence
    And of course, the sovereign design. Just... classic.
  9. CartwheelTwopence
    Gothic crowns all the way! Truly stunning pieces... But the 5 guinea Lima coin reverse is very good, too.
  10. CartwheelTwopence
    Very rare; I've never seen one and it's not in my book! Great find and I hope it's valuable!
  11. CartwheelTwopence
    And the 5p is too small.
  12. CartwheelTwopence
    Also, coppers are too low value.
  13. CartwheelTwopence
    I love the £2; I thought they had got rid of the florin sized coin when the 10p was re-sized. Also like the 50p and 20p; they are easy to distinguish. Hate the £1 coin; it is too easy to fake and is too small for its value.

    Non - I have not been around that long! ( I did once find a 1950's halfpenny in a park... )
  15. CartwheelTwopence
    I think that really all that is going for them is the face value. Mintage is quite high, silver is only £7... I just don't think they are worth it.
  16. CartwheelTwopence
    Wow! Thank you - I had absolutely no idea! Well, I do think it's a really nice design - and don't want to pay £200 - so I'm keeping it. And it is definitely not going for scrap now! Just another query for anyone: how much less - and I know it's a lot - is this one worth, would you say?
  17. CartwheelTwopence
    The Reverse?
  18. CartwheelTwopence
    The Obverse?

    Hi, I have recently come across this piece, and have absolutely no idea what it is. I picked it up, because presumably - due to the age - it is silver, and so would be worth around £1 in scrap. I will keep it if it's worth a little more, though; I acknowledge that it has a hole in it, but am just curious of what it is. I can tell you that it is not in "collectors coins GB", or in any of my other books, but it has the Britannia on it so surely it is British? Please help!
  20. CartwheelTwopence
    £1000! You must really want that coin! (Take the money!)
  21. CartwheelTwopence
    Oh - and by the way - the shield does not have a loop taken from it!
  22. CartwheelTwopence
    I agree with you there; that's why for the Royal Mint £1 coin design competition, my design is a floral themed shield featuring English roses, Scottish thistles, Irish clovers... and a Welsh daffodil!
  23. CartwheelTwopence
    I personally - upon acknowledging what they tend to fetch - would advise you to hold out at £2500. It is a very rare piece, in a very nice grade. It'll find the right buyer at that, I'm sure.
  24. CartwheelTwopence
    I agree - 20p!
  25. CartwheelTwopence
    What incredible coins! WOW! I honestly would not even worry about a tiny little scratch when zoomed in on x20; what examples could you ever find to beat these? Particularly the crown! Very well sourced - It makes me so jealous seeing coins as beautiful as these!!!
