Chris roxaboo Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 (edited) What do you think of the 1934 crown? Having come across a fare few fakes I'm checking to see what you guys think as I want a genuine one. Thank you in advance. Edited February 14, 2016 by Chris roxaboo Quote
Rob Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Looks like a copy to me. The detail isn't sharp enough. The grade is also not very good, which considering they didn't circulate in the real world at the time, or at least only a very few did should raise eyebrows. Does it have a milled edge? Doesn't show if it has, A proper one will cost you money, but it will also have resell value. A copy might cost hundreds instead of thousands, but a dealer will give you a couple quid for it, and that only to obtain an example to compare. Buy a decent one from a reputable dealer, not ebay or Alibaba 2 Quote
TomGoodheart Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Doesn't look right to me. And I know 34s are rare and so have desirability... but you could get a nice '27 for 1/10th the price ... . Quote
Chris roxaboo Posted February 14, 2016 Author Posted February 14, 2016 I don't like the darkness under writing. But wants 2700 for it!!? Quote
Rob Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Depends who wants 2700 for it. It is too much and doesn't look right to me. Have a look on Alibaba for 1934 crowns. I don't like the darkness under writing - What? Quote

Chris roxaboo Posted February 16, 2016 Author Posted February 16, 2016 Bagerap. Do you mean a know copy? Quote
bagerap Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 It was reported on another forum. I'm trying to find the original thread. Quote
