rpeddie Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 you get a discount if you buy them all together at least? we all have our vices, mine is 1928-1936 half crowns, florins and six pences, i have more of these than i know what to do with or why i cant stop buying them Quote
craigy Posted November 14, 2017 Author Posted November 14, 2017 no discount, they hook you in with the first one at £9.99 then its £28.99 inc postage each for the next 11, not something i would buy again, i never bought them thinking they would be worth more than i paid for them, but i like the medieval thing Quote
Matteo95 Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 (edited) they seem to reproduces parts of the famous Bayeux Tapestry if you like medieval stuffs why don't you buy an original medieval coin ? just for et xample this nice penny today has been sold for 260 + BP £ at DNW. https://www.dnw.co.uk/auctions/catalogue/lot.php?auction_id=467&lot_id=243&backto=cabinet Edited December 13, 2017 by Matteo95 Quote
