  1. Decimal currency does nothing for me what so ever, hence the fact most of us tend to collect OLD coins lol. Does anyone here actually collect decimal? Apart from the 2 pound boysI do , but my collection is close to complete so I am moving down to Victoria
  2. Here is an example of what I am talking about http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2013-2014-2015-Silver-20-coins-All-investment-graded-/321929059286?hash=item4af4779bd6:g:S9YAAOSwAKxWU0gN
  3. Purchased the hardback for at home , and the Kindle version for my tab when away from home...
  4. I think I need to buy this book
  5. Tom , you words have pushed me to the purchase , sod the bank account
  6. Nice price , I would have paid that
  7. I have found a coin I want , its the frosted reverse 2001 crown Spink 4554A Its been removed from the set it was in and slabbed. Just got to justify the price now...
  8. My guess (I'm not an expert) would be VF+ to NEF
  9. I agree that there are costs involved , but the percentage added to the price is astronomical I don't know what other people think , but I don't have to own the best example , just a very good one.
  10. I'm looking at decimal 1983-2015 coins , which are more of a fixed value They put them up with a fixed "Buy It Now" price , way over the actual book value
  11. CGS must be slabbing loads of coins as the percentage of CGS slabs on Ebay is going up Is this the way the market is going , get your coin slabbed so you can raise the price by 200% Is it worth paying that premium for a CGS slabbed coin ?
  12. I would worry more if it wasn't toned as normally 1911 proofs come toned due to the box they were stored in, normally with a blue interior. Yes I'd expect the 1911 to be more toned than that. I would worry more if it wasn't toned as normally 1911 proofs come toned due to the box they were stored in, normally with a blue interior. Yes I'd expect the 1911 to be more toned than that. As you all know , I now have a thing about toning
  13. Open to offers as I don't collect pennies....
  14. I have one here , just got to get a picture of it as I am no good at grading coins
  15. Does this count for the Penny as well ?
  16. I,m no expert , but I think cleaning ruins the surface of the coin , creating what looks like small scratch marks
  17. I emailed a day ago asking for better pictures , no reply yet I may phone the number to see if this site is actually live... Has a few nice coins that I would like to own.
  18. No , there are two Gothic Crown's, and the one above is for sale ES0019 Crown Victoria, 1847, Gothic Proof, Extremely Fine £1,195.00
  19. Thank god for that....
  20. That Gothic Crown looks very clean , shame there is not a higher detail picture (I have blown it up, but it loses detail)
  21. They are calling this a "Gaming Token" , is that right ?
  22. Just found this on one of the auction sites What a waste of a very nice coin
  23. Thanks all , will have to see what prices they go for
