There is 130 or 131 border teeth teeth.
130 / 8 = 16 and thus 2 x 8 = 16 so its getting even luckier

Seeing your profile picture @1949threepence reminds me that, IF I had the money, I'd be buying the two aUnc '46 and '49 brass 3ds that are on sale. As it is, I will settle for my 3rd desire, which will be quite a bit cheaper I hope?

I am glad you are not bidding as I have my fingers crossed for the Brass 3D's

In person in London. They might email you a picture if you ask nicely.
Thanks Mat.
I will be able to view on the morning before the auction.
There are about 30 lots I would like.
One benefit is I can pay on the day and submit to them for slabbing what I want slabbing without having to worry about posting them.

I do love the description of 1710
"fine, dark tone, on a slightly irregular flan!"
I was nearly sea sick just looking at those waves. Borderline melt pot for me, surprised it got anywhere near being catalogued as a single lot! ?
Where can you view photos of coins in the catalogue without photos ? - There are a few coins I am interested in that don't have pics.

Only 4 years late to the convo
better late than never
I can always rely on you to advise me Mat.
I have been looking for a 1911 Hollow neck for about a month.
Remember when I could not find a 1920 florin in high grade - found one at York Coin fair at the FIRST table I looked - KB Coins. I was chuffed.
I also found a Matte Proof £5 1902 & and a £5 1902 currency both at MS63. Shame they didnt cost same as the 1920 Florin - LOL

Actually, it is here too! So nostalgic
Maybe you will get some snow.
Well I must drag my weary bones out of the Man Cave and struggle to work to sit there and look at more coins - Its a hard life

Thanks for that Mat - Appreciated !!!
The coin in question is a Quarter Farthing and I was asked the question which you have answered.
To give some thing back in return for your advice it is cold, grey and wet here in "Sunny Yorkshire"

Does anyone know if lustre / luster will fade on its own after time.
I know that other items, like curtains or paintings, if left in sunlight will fade.
I make mattresses and I know for a fact that foam goes a darker brown due to the warehouse lights exactly like a sun tan and you can see the "Strap Lines" on the foam where the foam above it has been like a very pronounced shadow.
Coins change due to oil from our fingers so if a coin is untouched and in a cabinet or box which is dark will the lustre fade over time ?
Advise Please !

That's just the rookies

If its the Rooks then it is either a Building or Clamour of Rooks which could be even worse.

Stop railing, I love this hobby and have no egrets.
Rather than being a Raffle of Turkeys or a Knob of water fowl try to be a Parliament of Owls
