Again according to CCGB this is Cupro-Nickel (No silver) UNC/BU £10/£15, but going as a solid silver crown. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Solid-Silver-Crown-Superb-Condition-Fully-Boxed-Papers-1951-Festival-of-Britain-/381649944974?hash=item58dc1c018e:g:qsYAAOSwepZXRy7u Looks like it's going to go for correct price.

Forget it, Londoncoins have a few and the hair's similar at the end, my bad.

Checking grading British Coins on this item http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/272254892279?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT She has a curl at the end of her hair, the book show's no curls in F, VF or EF, is this normal?

According to CCGB this little beauty is listed at £10 for Fine, I may be new to this but the Obverse looks poor to me!! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/QUEEN-VICTORIA-VERY-OLD-COIN-OF-QUARTER-FARTHING-1852-/301973834159?hash=item464f0b09af:g:cFgAAOSwuhhXUWRY

This went for £31.01, so £9 under the CCGB price ?

Thanks gents, I should've put up the reverse as well, working last night so I'm off to bed. I'll put some more up later if you don't mind. ☺

Actually change that to F

My grading book has arrived, these are my first observations......VF??

Good point, I need to find a few fairs, car boot sales.

Where does buckscoins get his coins from? Nice store on eBay, a little pricey for a newbie.

Not really, too much to take in, although I do like the crowns.

Thanks again both, certainly opened my eyes, I need to be a bit more thorough when buying/checking.

There was another 1887 above the one I chose, had "Included with Gothic" under the Mintage title, this is going at £40 UNC, must be that.

Collectors coins, page 72, 2nd from top, it say's Jubilee head, ignore me I'm a novice.

According to my book aUNC is recommended at £200, is this right?
