Yes, you could be right! I’ll see what NonM turns up with…I might get lucky, otherwise I’ll be getting the Canon out
Here you go @Coinery! Sorry for the delay.

Many thanks, that would be brilliant…very forward thinking of you to save the images 🙂
The coin is an 1899 Sixpence.
Excellent, thank you 🙏
I'm away for a week but poke me about this next weekend. I had a quick look before I left but couldn't see that UIN. I will check properly on my return.

I’m struggling, I can’t even find the LCGS population report…is it still a thing? Can you still check authenticity of the old slabs or view other UINs?
That's long gone, I may have the pictures at home, I will check when I can.
What type of coin is it? I can't search for UIN but the AI will find Half crowns for example.

I am lurking! Already blown most of my budget for the year!

Please make sure you are on council-owned beaches in Cornwall, not on beaches owned by the Duchy of Cornwall, National Trust, or private land as they will try to fine you.

Merry Christmas one and all!

Hi Rob, I did some digging and I think it is a Hong Kong 5 cent, Jonas, Brook & Brothers token. 1870 - 1890.

Looks it eBay might have done something as the page is now "missing" rather than listing ended by seller.
I sent them a message reporting it, hopefully others did to ,and ebay emailed me last night saying it had been pulled and action was been taking against the seller.

I have to say I don't like the unevenness of the rim on the reverse. Are there any other signs to indicate fakery?
Only that the seller listed the same coin for more money and under a slightly different account!

I am convinced its a fake now.... ah well!

Rather than start another thread, does this look legit to you guys?

I see the 1849 penny from the auction has pitched up on ebay for double the price it hammered at...😕
I would assume it is someone like Atlas? There are so many coins appearing on ebay, sold at auction, that are listed for significantly more than they were bought for and sometimes with dubious descriptions, missing key information from the original auction listing like edge bumps or inflated grades. I know dealers have to make a living but some of them are taking the proverbial..... Will the bubble burst?

I tend to use a third party to submit my coins to NGC here in the UK. The turn around was around 3 months last time (over a year ago). I can put you in touch with someone in the UK who can help. I know its not ideal but they may be able to give you a steer.

I have 2 1925's at the moment, one is impaired due scratches on the bust (not mentioned by Spink when I bought it) and the other was graded as CGS78 (I think). Neither are as good as yours @ozjohn

No they stopped a few years back. The auctions take too much time of their time and are far more profitable than grading unfortunately.

I have dabbled azda but don't know enough to make any serious investment/gamble. That said, with the current price jumps I'm up about 300% today but have been down by 50% in the past.

I am really struggling to fill the many gaps I have. Most things are now out of reach of my budget.

I've got the NC on a CD, but Sod's law saw my computer with a CD drive die soon after I got it.
Now I need to find someone with a CD drive to get it onto a memo stick or something I can use to download and print things off before the drives no longer exist.
As paddy said just get a USB DVD drive, no more than £22 ish. My main PC doesn't have a DVD drive so I use a USB external drive.

Yes I had my eye on a couple of lots but they went for way over my budget.

I’m really not convinced that Facebook offers the useful archive of information going back years that the forum does, and its excellent search facility. However I don’t use Facebook for coins…..any particularly recommended groups?
